Finally started!

I finally got started on my pal's scarf, for real this time. I went to a LYS last night and they suggested Lorna's Laces Shepherd Bulky, which I thought would be nice, since it's superwash. I think it's in the Purple Iris colorway, but the cat made off with the skein band.

I'm using a reversible cable pattern, and it's turning out nicely. I've already frogged once, but I'm back up to 3 1/2 repeats. It's a quick knit, and I love the way the color pools. I hope my pal does too!
