See Eunny Knit!

He said it needed a quote thicker, tighter unquote collar.

So I frogged the collar I'd put on there...

Picked up two thirds the original number of stitches and worked it twice as long...

Picked up the corresponding stitches at the base of the neckband on the inside...

And worked a three-needle bindoff for a double-thickness collar.

I used to hate after-the-fact adjustments like this - I'd consider a project done as soon as the last end was woven in. But this thing was such a big project (literally; the finished garment has a 57" chest measurement) - such a labor of demented obsession - that it seemed worth it.

And damned if he wasn't right.
