Drumroll please! Ta-da! It's all done! This is January's MegaKAL selection.
Here you can see it wrapped double. I think it looks pretty snuggly, if I do say so myself. :o)
And in this last picture, you can see how much yarn I have leftover. Tape measure there for size comparison. I might've gotten another row or two in there, but I was really out of steam by this time. I had already knit 7 extra repeats (4 rows each, so 28 extra rows past what I wanted to), just to try to use up as much yarn as I could.
I'm going to wrap it up, and save it for Christmas. I hope the desired recipient is going to like it! And with this, I'm already done with my first gift of the year! I always say I'm going to make my gifts early, and not stress in December... every year, I fail and end up making 3 gifts in December. :op Let's see how well I prep for this upcoming year.

Pattern: Code: Armonika Cowl by Rutast Design
Yarn: StitchJones Yarnageddon 2012 (?) 500 yds of luscious 50/50 merino silk single ply!!
I was a little worried as I kept knitting this that it would actually be too long. In the end, I have a cowl with a circumference of 52" and width of about 9". I think this is a great size! With that much width, it needs a bit of extra length to be able to comfortably wrap it around your neck.
