In the meantime I've been playing with two of my Christmas presents from my parents - my deluxe set of KnitPro interchangeable needles (all the sizes from 3.5mm to 7mm and cables from 40cm to 100cm) and my Vogue Knitting Stitchionary: Cables v. 2 (btw whilst searching for the link to that book I found that you can access some of the Vogue Stitchionary patterns free online here - there are cables, knit and purl, and colourwork patterns).
The result (so far) is the beginnings of a reversible cabled rib scarf in the Blacker Designs pink Cotswold yarn that I bought at UK Knit Camp.
I love this cable - it's going to make for a really thick squooshy scarf.
* Although admittedly those 14 rows add up to about 13,000 stitches!

13,000 stitches!! Sweet child of mine!!!!
You got the KnitPro Set!??! Wow! I am thinking about it, but what do you do with the needles you have two equal pairs of now??
Ooh that pink (peach?) stuff looks just like the Blacker Design I knitted up this week into a Damson Cowl (The Knitter, dec. 2010 issue). I have no idea what's in it, Sue told me at the time, but it was a one off test run for their colour collection.
Can't wait to see the Aeolian! Good luck with the remaining 13,000 stitches...
Very nice scarf, i wonder if by any chance you could share the pattern?
I too would like to know if you share this pattern. Thank you.
