Cable For One?

I wanted to try my hand at something I hadn't tried before, so I found a link to a website called Hello Yarn, here's the link if you all are interested http://www.helloyarn.com/irishhikingscarf.htm.

It's a really cute website by a gal that does some amazing things with yarn. The Hello Yarn Lady offers some free patterns and there was a beautiful pattern for an Irish Hiking Scarf. A really pretty, uncomplicated cable pattern for a scarf. So I used some yarn from my stash, Joann's Sensations Angel Hair yarn in color #649, which is actually a cool purple color. The only problem with this yarn is that it is kinda hairy, so the cables are not as distinct as they could be. But it was fun to do and easy peasy japaneasy!
