Queen's Collar — Diamond Net Lace Chart (worked as charted)

Foundation: ch a multiple of 3 plus 2 (e.g. 3x74 + 2 = 224 for a wide collar, or 3x62 + 2 = 188 as a necklace-length reference). Work from the 2nd ch: base row of sc + ch.
Row 1: *sc into every 3rd st, ch 7* across (ch-7 arches)
Row 2: sc into each arch, ch 10 between (ch-10 arches)
Row 3: sc into each arch, ch 8
Row 4: sc into each arch, ch 10
Row 5: sc into each arch, ch 8
Row 6: sc into each arch, ch 10
Row 7: *sc into arch, ch 4, 3-ch picot* across, forming the picot-scallop edge
The alternating arch lengths create a diamond net that widens into a collar.
Symbols: X = sc, oval = ch, dot cluster = 3-ch picot.

Notes
