Crocheted crocodile stitch (alligator stitch, pineapple stitch) collar

Latest crochet: crocodile stitch collar

What I have I been making of late? A rainbow crocodile stitch collar with crochet. Also known as alligator stitch or pineapple stitch, I love this wool-eating, quick stitch. It looks complicated, but once you get the hang of it, crocodile stitch is pretty simple.

Here are some work in progress shots. I started with shoulder pads, of sorts:

Crocheted them together, and began on the collar and straps:

And that is it, so far.
