Grey Cabled Scarf

Hey Everyone, I have been working on this new scarf lately. And it's a bit funny, because everyone is like, 'Why are you knitting a scarf in the summer?'. Haha, well, I am trying to build up my stash of winter stuff, before winter actually arrives, and living in Canada, that can be anytime between now and September. Plus, I participate every November in a local Craft Bazaar and sell my handmade items live. I would like to have more than 6 items to sell this year. lol

So here are pictures of my grey cabled scarf: It's turning out so beautiful!! I want to make one in every colour now.
