Loosey Goosey Knit Collar Fix! (My version of the free Winter Bluff pattern by Ashley Lillis)

My version of this sweater was knit at a looser gauge with Caron Simply Soft yarn. The collar turned out bigger than I wanted, but I planned to make a folded collar to put a drawstring in for a sporty look anyway. Watch the video to see how I modified the loosely ribbed collar into the look I was going for!
From my notes:
"I did a quick Internet search for a “free knit sweater pattern” on google. The Winter Bluff pattern by Ashely Lillis was the second pattern in the list that was linked to it’s original designer which was my goal. I didn’t want to pull from any collaborative blog posts or from a pattern hub. It was an easy to download pattern with just an email requirement. She also has a video tutorial linked for this sweater on her YouTube channel. I did not watch it while knitting my sweater." Read all of my pattern notes here: https://www.maahomestead.com/blog1
