By Jove, I think I've got it! And I come bearing photographic proof!!
After much hair pulling and cursing the day I wanted to learn how to do cables, I think I've finally got the hang of it. I started the One Skein Single Cable Scarf yet again last night, this time with the pattern correction in hand. I was more than a little anxious for this version of the scarf to turn out in a much better fashion. Thus far, I think it's going rather well.
You can judge for yourself....I do believe those are cables that I see on that there scarf!
This scarf is going to be for the Think Pink Challenge, a KAL for scarves for breast cancer surviors. There's a link over on my sidebar if anyone's interested. Granted, there's not much time left, but, it's a worthy cause. For what it's worth, I'm doing this in honor of my grandmother, a crocheter, who passed away from breast cancer in 1987.
I know, it's just a single cable...but I really thought I wouldn't be able to do cables at all. I'd been told they were much harder than they actually turned out to be.
Next up, multiple cables!

Very nice scarf as well as color. I like the cable only on one side.
Hi Katy,
Christianne here - your One Skein Secret Pal! I just dropped a letter in the mailbox to you, so you should get it soon. I decided to visit your "Blog" - it's awesome. I looked at your photos from Minneosota - they are great! And the scarf pictured in your September 12 is gorgeous!!! What kind of yarn did you use? It looks very soft! I've been thinking about starting a Blog - you've given me some inspiration.
Talk to you soon!
Christianne
Wow, that is really cool looking! Great job! And I love the yarn you used, too.
Love that yarn!
