Time to break out the news/scrap or tissue paper and a pen/pencil/marker.

Using measurements A through D and measurement H, we will draft the collar/yoke, starting with the largest measurement: H

Add 1" to H for 1/2" seam allowances, measure out and mark on paper.

Add 1" to D, measure up this distance from both ends of H and mark.

Using C, measure inward from top point of D on both sides and mark.

From the inner points of C, measure upward the distance of (B plus 1/2") and mark.

Connect the upper points of B.  This distance should equal (1/2 of A) + 1".

Slightly slope C and round out the corners made by the intersections of D and C.

Cut out this pattern piece; mark as "collar".
