The Graceful Funnel Collar
Both flattering and functional, the funnel collar has many faces
by Fred Bloebaum

The funnel collar is showing up on fashion runways again. It's a close relative of the shawl collar with many design possibilities. Author, educator, and designer Fred Bloebaum defines this collar for beginning, intermediate, and advanced sewers and simultaneously walks us through the construction for three different jacket styles.
