Cowl for a Friend

I knitted a cowl for a good friend back in October...  (I know, I know... it's now February of the new year, and my last post here was a year ago!  XD)

"Silkie" Cowl
Pattern:  "Silkie" by Gudrun Johnston - Purchased at Ravelry

Yarn: Quince and Co. Osprey in Delft 108

I started with provisional/chain cast-on to finish this snood with 3-needle bind-off. - If you don't know what I'm talking about here and really want to learn knitting, visit KnittingHelp.com :)
I'm a huge fan of the I-cord edge of this cowl (smooth, beautiful side edges!), and not having to use a cable needle to create this stitch pattern was a plus!  It was quick and the stitch pattern was not boring or too complex. :)

Oh, and I have another scarf in progress, and I won't be long before I post it here, I promise! :D
