I’ve now made the collar (see photo below) and attached it (no photo yet).

A purple cotton shirt with the collar removed, a freshly made collar in the same fabric, and a ripped, crumpled, wrinkled, shrunken old collar that used to belong to the shirt.

I used freesewing.org to generate the pattern for the collar stand and collar. That took a bit of fiddling because their collar pattern is part of a shirt pattern rather than being standalone, so there’s no way to ask it to just make a pattern to fit the specific neckhole length of an existing shirt.

But now I’ve done it, it’d be easy for me to do it again, so if you’d like me to generate patterns for you, just let me know the length of the neckhole sewline and what size of paper (e.g. A4) you’d like to print the pattern on (it will be more than one sheet of paper so you’ll have to glue them together before cutting out).
