Fat Cables

Look! I finished my second Art & Souls scarf. This is also my first cabled project. I think it looks pretty good for a beginner. It is a simple 6 stitch cross-over cable. I call it "Fat Cables" because that is what Size 11 needles do to a cable. It's just a fact of life. I attempted to cable without a cable needle, but of course I am too stubborn to actually look up instructions, so that ended in disaster. Pretty much every time I would try to do it, I would drop stitches left and right.

Is there a way to fix a cable crossed in the wrong direction without ripping back to the mistake?

Your cable scarf is beautiful. Cables seem to be the rage this year in all the catalogues I'm getting. Great job! Nice blog!!
