This simple cowl is made to match Janelle Master's Susie's Reading Mitts, my favorite elegant yet easy fingerless mitts pattern. Extra scrumptious knit in Malabrigo Silky Merino!

Pattern Directions
Using long-tail cast-on, cast on 100 stitches. Join for working in round, being careful not to twist stitches. Place marker for beginning of round.
Rounds 21-50: Knit. (If you wish the cowl to be longer or shorter, you can add or subtract some of these rows.) Rounds 62-70: Follow instructions for rounds 1-9. Bind off all stitches. Weave in any stray ends.
Finishing
Turn inside-out so wrong side of cowl is showing. Fold top and bottom hem at the turning round. Stitch cast-on and bind-off edges to wrong side of cowl using matching yarn in order to make picot edge. Weave in ends and block lightly.
