[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Knitted Break-Away Collar idea

[Tawny And Libby]

Dixie this is great! I was just thinking about how to make a breakaway collar for my kitty. 
On a collar that I had bought, it had a loop of elastic holding it together. I’m going to try it out and I’ll let you know how it goes. 
You all have been inspiring to me as I glance through the emails of all the fun projects! My main craft is ceramics, but I’ve been wanting to venture out. SO I just got my first skein of yarn and a crochet needle. Then I downloaded some books from Book Share on crochet. The little bits I’ve been practicing are the perfect cat collar size. And since my kitty is Dazzled  by the dangling yarn, I thought she may appreciate a new collar. LOL!


Chaleureusement,
Tawny and Libby

I know a small length of i-cord is a good place to start, along with some Velcro, but haven't been able to experiment as of yet, due to my continuing saga with Knitters' Elbow.
