Collar design process

First attempt, scrapped, I didn't like it at all!

Second attempt, better, a base to work from

Third attempt, definitely got the shape I want, but decided against using lock stitch chains. They are far too laborious! My next effort I changed the LSCs to ordinary ones, I reduced the stitches of the split rings in the row between the chains, and I have added a final row which I will post a picture of when completed.
