Shedir is done!
So I finished Shedir earlier today.
Specs:
yarn - Kraemer Yarn Summit Hill, greenstone
needles - US 5 Boye circular (from my hated interchangeable set), US 5 Clover bamboo for the top
modifications - other than the yarn and needle size, a lot... skipped three of the founds of ribbing on the bottom, skipped a full cable repeat, and at the top where there are two rows of pattern repeats between the decrease rounds I skipped the second straight pattern repeat round on each section.
I have a bit of a problem related to it in that it came out way too long, though, so I posted about it on livejournal, and am hoping my idea for a fix will work. Because as much as I love this pattern and how it turned out, I really don't want to knit it again anytime soon.

Wow, that came out amazing! I really like it better in a jewel tone than in the pale colors I usually see it in. Hmmm I might just have to make that now...
I really like it!
wow that is one incredibly gorgeous hat!
And I love the color and I'm usually not a fan of green at all!
Really pretty. I love the green.
