I started out on 4mm needles, but didn’t like the openness of the fabric, so I started over on 3.75mm needles. Also tried to cable without a cable needle, but I wasn’t happy with the results -- I did the first 4 that way, and the rest with the cable needle, and will continue on this way for the rest of the scarf.

Scarf width, preblocking, is 10.75”

12-8: Day 8 complete: 2 hours - aligned the cable because that one-off stitch bugged the heck out of me. Added the stitch back in on the last row at the end of the row, so now I am back to 54 sts. in the body of the scarf.
12-9: Day 9 complete: 2 hours
12-10: Day 10 done: 2.25 hours
12-11: Day 11 done: 5 hours. Liked it so much I knit it twice …. NOT! …. I messed up the end of Day 10 by knitting stockinette stitch where the garter rows ought to have been and didn’t notice my mistake until I had knit all of Day 11. %)#^UU$^)@!!!! So I rippped it all back and redid it with the proper garter rows between days 10 and 11.
