Default Hoods with fluffy yarn

Good Afternoon...

Last week Mom and I were in Michael's and I saw a yarn that really
took my eye. Unfortunately, I didn't think to write down the name of
the yarn, but it was fluffy like Funny, but softer, and it had slubs
through it as well. I thought it would be great to knit up as a
Hood/cowl like this one:

Do you think I would cast on the same number of stitches as it shows
for the Lion Brand version? Somehow I remember one of the yarn shop
owners saying she knit one of the out of Funny and cast on 90 sts,
then just kept knitting round and round until she had the length she
liked. Sound good?

take care, Linda in B.C., Canada
