Hat and scarf

My partner's mother has asked for a hat and scarf for her birthday, which isn't until August, but I thought I'd get on with them immediately.  I purchased some Hayfield Bonus Chunky in a dusty pink and started the hat three days ago and completed it today (all done mostly in the evening after work).  It's a slipped cable pattern, knitted in the round on 5mm double pointed needles.  I don't particularly like the contrast bands, so knitted it all in one colour, using just about one skein.  The little that's left over will just go into extending the length of the scarf very slightly.

Anyhow, pictures!
