Steampunk scarf Part II

   I'm still working on it! I can't believe how slow it's going, but that must be because of all those cables I'm knitting. I made a peace with cable needle that looks like straight line with a hump on the middle - that was the only one I can use to get those cable stitches knitted after I move them to cable needle. Other ones in the kit are good for holding stitches, but I can't knit off them. Maybe somebody else can, but I'm ok with using one I figured it out - at least for now.
 Anyways, it's almost done, I need to figure out how long I really want it to be. Pattern suggested 65" but that's a man pattern, I'm not that tall, so I think it should be less. Right now, I need couple of more inches to add so both sides will reach my pants' pockets, then we will see will I add any more or keep it that long.
 And then I have to do it again :( for my DH... eh... plus he is tall, so no short scarf there :(
 If I can do it by New Year, I can put it under the tree.  :)
