This pattern is not as challenging as it looks. The Knit Dragon Cowl pattern uses simple increases and dropped stitches, which are picked up to be re-knit in bunches. These will give you the ridges throughout the cowl. Designer Jessie Rayot emphasizes the need to count and not drop stitches until the pattern says to do so.
