Notes

some mods: 36 sts cast on; more rows; extra increases in ribs; seed st instead of st st sections

best comment ever, from fosterson:
“It’s like a Gallifreyian High Council Collar on acid!”

made for the SAL/KAL Cowl-Along in COLORBOMBers and Novelty & Art Yarn Spinners

Not sure why mine didn’t ruffle around the bottom edge, but I figure I needed even MORE increases due to my gauge difference.

I was planning to line it w/ fabric (the Romney in the supercoils makes it a little scratchy), but I realized that would make it difficult to maintain the stretchiness, which it needs to be nice & snug around the neck.

Should have taken only an afternoon to knit, but I had to stop repeatedly to spin more LoopyDoopy Minis!

from Wikipedia:
“Buffoon is a term for someone who provides amusement through inappropriate appearance and/or behavior.”
