Cast on 14 stitches and join. You now have 118 stitches. Next row: You now begin to work in the round. Work the 2x2 rib pattern for 52 stitches. This is the midpoint of the round: place a marker here. Continue the 2x2 rib pattern for the remaining 50 stitches. Continue the 2x2 ribbing in the round (without any further cast-ons) slipping your marker as you go. When the piece measures 4 inches from the point at which you cast on the 14 stitches, bind off 14 stitches after your midpoint marker - 104 stitches. Next row: Now work the remaining stitches back and forth in rows, binding off 2 stitches at beginning of each row and maintaining the rib pattern. Repeat until only 10 stitches remain. Knit 1 more row in rib pattern. Bind off all stitches. Weave in any ends. I hope you have fun knitting this cowl. Please let me know if you have an questions.
