I decided I loved the sample piece so much it was worth starting again with the ripples running length ways.
US Terms in black UK Terms in red brackets
I needed 9 ripples @ 23sts = 207 base ch.
6mm hook and I've used Stylecraft Carnival Chunky in 2 colours
No extra stitches required as I am going to work this long cowl in the round, it will be big enough to hang low on warmer days
but it is long enough to twist a second time around my neck for the chillier moments of next winter.

Granny Tip: st, mark each dip as you reach it...makes it easier on a long run of ripples to keep track, remove before adding the final finish round 18
Round 2- 15: sl st into the next sp, 3dc, ch3, 3dc into top points, 3dc (granny shell) into side spaces, and miss the bottom space to create the decrease and the up turn
top point above
miss bottom space above.
Round 16: change colour and repeat round 2.
Round 17: change back to main col. repeat round 2.
I like the two finishes so have done one dotty on one edge and on contrast granny shell round on the second edge
To Finish:
Round18: add a round of granny shells in the second colour to the spaces of the start ch, to complete the second edge of the long cowl.
FLOWER PATTERN
A 2 finger wrap of 6 wraps.
Round 1: 12sc [12dc] into the circle
Round 2: ch3, counts as first tr, [dtr) 1tr [1dtr] into the same st, 1tr [1dtr] into the next st, ch3, sl st into the same st, sl st into the next st, repeat for all 6 petals, sl st to complete.
fold the cowl in half so you see both edgings and stay warm.
