Lush cowl revisited

I really want to finish something, but as finals lurk just around the corner, I really have to get crackin'.  My solution: just modify something I've already made.  Results:

I've never actually made anything with fringe before, and rather than looking up a pattern I decided to wing it. I ripped (oh yes, madelinetosh is easily broken) pieces of yarn, folded them in half, and made a slip knit through the yarn-overs.  HOPEFULLY this will keep the cowl from curling up at the bottom.  But alas, as soon as this merino bad-boy hits moisture, it cinches right back up and needs to be blocked.  So we'll see, cowl, we'll see...
