ready for hiking

I finished the IHS last week! This pattern was great! I ran out of wool, so the scarf is more of a muffler size than scarf size...but it will be suitable for a guy.
The cables on this are a little chunky for me, so next one will be on smaller needles. I will be sure to make another one of these, I'm thinking about doing it in a brown Alpaca, but will have to spin it up first. Thanks for letting me join the knit/blog along group...its been fun seeing and reading about all the different ways a scarf can be done. Now, I just need to pack the IHS up and send it off to its new owner...
