I'm thrilled! The Picovoli did not speak to me. I had started the Somewhat Cowl a little bit ago to compensate for my dislike of my Picovoli knitting. (It is a fabulous pattern! Just not for me.) Love the Somewhat Cowl pattern and I'm about one third of the way through the body. (Slow knitter with many projects) I'm using Knitpicks Merino and due to the difference in gauge I'm knitting a size smaller than I normally would. I'll post a picture once I join it in the round and see if it fits!
