CORRECTION - November 12, 2010
Number of skeins should read 10(10, 12, 14). I also added yardage requirements - 1120 (1205, 1450, 1685).

HELPFUL HINT February 3, 2011 - Make two copies of the written instructions for the collar band motif and use one for the left side, and one for the right side, marking your place with post-its as you go.
