Tat the top row across first, shown in gray on the diagram. Then continue tatting down and up for each narrow section. The picots between the narrow sections need to be gradually larger to enable the sections to fan out nicely.
I made mine using size 10 thread, but since this collar is worn like a necklace, the size doesn't really matter.

I'm using 6mm beads with size 10 thread in the photo above.
My tatting pattern was inspired by seeing a picture of RBG's dissent collar. ♥
