Clue 4: while fully appreciating the design idea, this is not a cowl as I expected, it’s a balaclava, in this case a slouchy hood with a tube neck. Will try to transform this into collar, don’t know how yet.

Transformation to a collar:
Did just a few rows of clue 3. From this point mirroring everything, first clue 2 backwards, then clue 1. Then joining the two ends to a ring with 3 needle bind off. Finally sewing the open top edges together.

After all, - a super fun mkal including new and special techniques.
