 Fig. (44) Diagram for round collar that opens in the back

If you want it to roll, cut the pattern in sections and spread it at the top, as indicated in Fig. 45. Add twice the height of the roll beyond the upper edge of the collar, as shown by the dotted line. In cutting out the pattern, allow seams at all edges, except the center-front. This will be placed on the fold of the goods in cutting. The collar will gather to the neck a little, when it is sewn on.
