FO: Red Scarf

I finished this scarf and mailed it off a few weeks ago. I hope the recipient likes it.

My cables go to the right instead of the left like in the Irish Hiking Scarf pattern. I've fallen in love with the pattern and I'm planning on making more of them.

Soapbox moment:
I voted yesterday at the Corpus Christi Council for the Deaf. Its a very nice facility and the staff were very helpful and courteous. After I voted, I left $5 in the tip jar at their cafe as a thank you for having their facility as an early voting place. I waited in line for about 20 minutes before I voted. (I wanted to vote this past weekend at 1/2 Price Books but the wait was over an hour.) I beamed when I clicked on Obama/Biden. I'm urging everyone to vote even if its for those other two. I've always believed you can complain as much as you want about this country if you vote. If you don't vote you haven't done the one most important thing to get your voice heard so don't complain. In other countries people fight even die for the right vote so EVERYONE GO VOTE!!!

the scarf is gorgeous! and move over on the soapbox, please - i need to get up there next to you to reinforce your points. democracy doesn't work if you don't vote. 40% of eligible canadian voters didn't vote in our general election in october. it's not about voting for "the winner", it is about having your say.
