A comfy cowl for cold winter days

Been tempted for some time to knit a really nice cowl and absolutely fell for the ome from the Purl Bee, named the Bandana Cowl. It looks rather easy to knit, which works fine with me as I am trying to get back on the knitting track since I've moved in together with J and all my life turned upside down. I never seem to have time to just sit and do stuff by my self anymore, or have time to just stare out into the open in order to boost some enegy - something I need so much as a result of a demanding job and a difficult life at home.
So, here I am, on a Sunday evening, casting off for a cowl in darkblue, and I hope it will bring me some warmth and keep the wind away.
