Lori's skinny purple scarf

While in Texas in April, 2010, my sister-in-law asked me to knit her a scarf. Lori lives in Virginia Beach. So I asked wide or skinny? Skinny. Color? Purple. Light or dark purple? Dark. Length? Long.
One long skinny dark purple scarf coming up!
I took the Irish Hiking scarf pattern and knitted just one cable instead of three.
I went to Hobby Lobby in Temple, Texas (we need one in Modesto!!) and bought size 9 needles because they were out of 8s and I wanted to start the scarf while visiting.
I chose "I Love This Wool" yarn. I used one skein, which made it 96 inches long or 8 feet. She can wrap it around her neck a few times.
