FO: Nadine's Shedir


Pattern: Shedir
Source: knitty
For: Nadine's St. Nick's gift
Yarn: .95 skeins Rowan Felted Tweed in 154
Yarn Purchased: The Yarnery in St. Paul, MN
Needles: US size 3 Addi Turbo 40" circs
Timeline: started 12.09.2007; finished 12.22.2007

This is the second time I've knit this pattern and I still think that it's just great. This yarn isn't anywhere near as stretchy or squishy as Calmer, but I love the tweediness of it. As always, a good, challenging knit that doesn't take an eternity. However, after a while, I didn't really feel like cabling practically every other row.

Oh, I've been working on one of these myself! It's also for a friend for Christmas, but will be late... Yours looks great! Good motivation for me to get in gear.
