Hello! I am trying to make a traditional navy blue wool sailor suit, and am not sure what material I should use to create the three white stripes which line the edge of the square sailor's collar (is there a name for this type of collar?) The material almost seems like white rick rack but not curved or fancy, just straight. Any help would be greatly appreciated! -Genevieve

| There's also a narrow trim called "soutache" if you can find it. |

Or perhaps grosgrain ribbon.
