Final Update 02.20.23:
Block your piece, based on gauge given, approximately 15″ x 35″, though with the squishy rib it may be narrower or wider, a bit shorter or longer, depending on your own gauge.
Block as you wish (I steam blocked mine), take the bind off edge and bring it down along one side of the piece, seaming from the cast on edge up the side to the bind off edge. This creates the cowl.
