As you recall, I went up a needle size or so, and used heavier wool than recommended, because I really wanted to make this with the Baby Llama wool I had. Although the cowl turned out a bit bigger than the pattern, I quite like the folded-over effect. 
Super soft, super warm, great pattern. 
the actual colour is a deep rich chocolate brown - not represented well in ANY of these pictures!

I love patterns that offer versatility that way - longer, shorter, wider, thinner - all easy to adapt to.
Great job, Steph!

Oh yeah...great piece!
I like the idea of a hood. I'm sure you'll let us know wha tyou did, right?
My goodness, with all those variations you've got planned I hope it is a quick knit or you'll be working on it into 2011! ;)
