Thanks so much!
This would be very easy to adapt for a bigger size. For the main bib piece cast on a larger number. Since its in seed stitch it would need to be an odd number. Then knit it for a longer length.
Same with the collar. You can add a couple extra stitches to the collar and then make it longer. I plan on posting a larger pattern soon.
Just for clarification, when you say "Knit 10 inches", do you mean knit until the whole collar is 10 inches, or until the end of the decrease is 10 inches?
This is a really cool pattern. I'm knitting something for a friend and I've had some trouble looking. Then again, I only looked for two days. Anywho, thanks for making such a crazy, yet fascinating and easy pattern.

My finished bibs are around 6" wide.
A friend just had a baby and I'm making a couple for him.
So, I've made the tie, but when I did row 21: K1, CO4, K1, I end up with a big hole in the middle! Is this correct? I've rummaged the internet for ways to do this, but all the instructions I find are for cast on in the beginning or end of a row. Could I trouble you for your method for completing this row?
