The Striped Dickey is a dickey with vertical stripes and a mock neck to keep you extra warm during chilly months. It is worked from the right shoulder edge to the left shoulder edge with shaping for the shoulder slope. Neck shaping is done first for the back, and then the front, and eventually joined back together for the right shoulder. Stitches are picked up for the neck and worked in ribbing, and the mock neck is finished with the Italian bind-off. This dickey is a quick and fun knit, and will be your new favorite layer!
