Lesson in Stitches is a cowl worked in various colours and patterns.

The cowl is easy and fun to knit, and gives you a fine opportunity to practice your knitting skills on different patterns. The colours and patterns keep changing all the way from bottom to top, and the work never gets boring along the way from start to finish.

I have used Unicorn Tails for the stripes, but you can just as well use, what you have in your stash and add your own personal touch of colours to the cowl.
