Dropped Stitch Cowl

It was –4 degrees out, I had a day off and was just trying to stay warm. This was a perfect knitting day. I was on Ravelry looking around for a fast project, and found this Dropped Stitch Cowl . Pretty pattern, I was off to my stash to see if I had a bulky yarn to use. I found a super bulky yarn from Brown Sheep that I had never used. Got my needles and turned on Netflix and started knitting. Pattern available on Ravelry thanks to Abi Gregorio! I did modify the pattern, I wanted it to be larger at the bottom so It would lay on top of my coat. Modifications were: On the 3rd and 4th repeat of the pattern on row 2 I increased 5 stitches evenly all around, this allowed my cowl to lay nicely on top of a coat. I would like to make another one with the recommended yarn and pattern to see how it falls. Pattern only took 1 skein of the Super Bulky Yarn which was approx. 125 yds. I used a #13 size needle.
