GAUGE:
10 sts = 4 in. (10 cm) in St st worked in the rnd (k every rnd) with 2 strands of yarn held tog. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

Simple Cowl Reviewed by Stacey Preston on 2012-01-04
This pattern was quick and easy. I started it in a class, and finished it at home by the end of the day. My first finished project other than a scarf!
