This version of the cowl I made is for those of you who cannot
find or cannot afford the necessary materials to make one. I will
tell you what I did, in hope that it helps you.
I couldnt find suittable yarn or needles in my town and it was
way over my budget to order them from USA (I live in Romania),
so I decided to make the cowl with what I had:
US 6 needles (4mm)
Yarn recicled from a pullover bought from the thrift shop.
This pattern can be adapted to all needle sizes and types of yarn.
LETS GET STARTED

The upper part of the cowl is made of some kind of yarn wrapped thick
strings. I found a tutorial very helpful and I have permission to share it
here.
I made this part following instructions from here:
http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/katniss-cowl-5
Or here:
http://engineeredcreations.wordpress.com/2013/12/26/katniss-cowl/
I strongly recommend you do this for the beginning, just the 2-3 strings,
depending on how you like it.
IMPORTANT: the longer one should be 1m long!! (100cm)
HERE IS MINE:

Part 2 is just a rectangle 1 m wide and 15 cm
high. Make it in herringbone stitch. Cast off.

PM = place marker M1= make one
k=knit WS = wrong side
p=purl RS = right side
Here is the tricky part. Cast on 90 stiches.
Row 1: k 2, PM, k 38, PM, k15, PM, k15, PM, k 20.
Row 2: p21, M1, p15,M1, p15, M1,p38, M1, p2; move markers on the
stiches you just knitted.
Row 3: * knit untill you reach marker, M1, repeat from *

And from now on you will make one everytime you reach a marker and
then move the marker to the new stich.
IMPORTANT:
The M1 on the drawing which says (only on WS) means that YOU
ONLY MAKE 1 ON THE WRONG SIDE , not on both sides. This
applyes just to that stich, every other stiches you M1 on both RS and
WS.
Make it untill the width reaches 30cm. Cast off.
I got it a bit wrong here because I did M1 on both
WS and RS, and I only should have on WS!!!
So dont make the same mistake like me! Pay attention!

THE ASSEMBLY
First sew part 1 and part 2 together. The longer string
and the cowl should both be 1m (100 cm) long.

After that, sew part 3 with the higher part in the front
and the lower part in the back. It should look like this :
