Gabe is a beautiful, athletic, Golden Retiever who belongs to my favorite dog trainer. He loves to compete in agility, rally and obedience trials.
Gabe has a hand-braided leather leash that he wears in competition. My trainer asked me to design a collar to compliment the leash and this is the design I came up with. My trainer commented that the design looks like green stars floating on a night sky.
The motif is adjustable to create a collar that will be comfortable for your fur-baby, and the colors can easily be changed to suit your personal taste.
On the pattern pages, I have provided you with:
- a full-color, graph-style beading chart for the beaded band as shown in the photo
- a full-color, graph-style beading chart for a single repeat of the motif to allow you to customize your collar length
- a color key with suggested Delica bead colors and bead counts for the beaded band as shown in the photo and for a single repeat of the motif
- instruction to help you attach your competed beaded band to the collar of your choice
- photos of finished collars
- Optional Loom/Square Stitch word chart is also available
