One of the classes I took at Madrona this past year was Harmonia's Ring Cowl by Sivia Harding . I used two skeins of Lustra by Berroco.
It's hard to see but the bind off for the collar edge has a wonderful picot edge which is enhanced with beads.
Sivia is a very patient teacher and designer who I would highly recommend taking a class from if she is in your area.
