Lou - I love your collar! Much prettier than a plain old turtleneck.

Gigi, they have these in the stores at the moment, and I have a red RTW one...my rtw has snaps on the edge of the collar for decoration which I really like.

What a great idea to leave the collar open on one side! Great job, Lou.

Great job Lou. I have this pattern too and I've made several tees from it. It really is timeless as you mentioned. I love the collar and now I'm inspired to try something different with this pattern too. Thanks for the review.

"Your Twin" looks great in this designer version of the basic turtleneck. Nice conversion to a very up-to-date style.

Lou-this was my favorite knit top (until Jalie 2005) and it's a great one. I *love* what you did with the neckline. What a great idea, and beautifully executed.

Lou, what a great save! That is a much dressier look to the collar than the regular t-neck. Way to go!

I just ordered this pattern. Your modification came out very nicely. As others have said, great save & very classy looking.

Lou, I just want to repeat what everyone else has said. What a great top. I am really impressed how you turned a problem into a really neat top.

Lou, this is really pretty! Just as EVERYone else has said, I love what you did with the collar. Terrific!

Wow, how sharp !!! When I first looked at the pic I thought it was some new Vogue pattern for sure. Very well done, I wish I could wear polo necks, but Trinny and Susannah say no no no !! Lovely !!

Great save, Lou! I looked at your photo first, thought ,"What a great top!" and was surprised when I looked at the pattern (which I have). Love your collar!
