I do like those big collars from those days and I really miss my baggy bell-bottoms too. Guess one day I'll have to dive in and see if I can make some.

Hallo!
Wow! Really well done - and the Plackett not mentioning is not noticeable. Did you use
a Pattern?
Bravo!!!

I would call that a super job. Don't tell anybody you know though, as the requests will follow.
