Lay your two pieces on top of each other, making sure that the pieces match each other. There is no right or wrong side, but each of the sides is different in terms of rib placement.
Start at the top of the collar and crochet slip stitches or sew the pieces together down the collar and across the shoulder. Cut yarn. Repeat on the other side.
