Eider ducks are commonly known for their ultra-soft down feathers hence their name: somateria mollissima, from somatos “body” and erion “wool”, and mollissimus “very soft. It has long been harvested to stuff pillows or quilts (the so-called eiderdowns).
While building their nest, eider females lined it with down feathers plucked from their own breast. Once the ducklings are grown and the nest abandoned, the eiderdown can be collected with no harm done to the birds.
The Eider shawl is worked diagonally from the cable edge. It shows off a large knit-as-you-go cable and plays with different yarn weights. While the cable calls for some purl stitches, the body of the shawl is knitted in garter stitch, with an i-cord edge build in all around it.
Eider is available in plain or two-coloured version. You’ll get both PDFs after your purchase.

Les canards eider à duvet sont connus pour leur duvet extrêmement doux d’où leur nom : somateria mollissima, de somatos “corps”, erion “laine” et mollissimus “très doux”. Ce duvet a longtemps été ramassé pour rembourrer les oreillers ou les édredons (qui en tirent justement leur nom).
Lors de la construction de leur nid, les femelles arrachent leur duvet de poitrine pour en tapisser l’intérieur. Une fois que les jeunes ont grandi et que le nid a été abandonné, le duvet peut ainsi être collecté sans qu’aucun mal ne soit fait aux oiseaux.
Le châle Eider est tricoté en biais, d’un côté à l’autre et joue avec les différentes grosseurs de laines. La torsade bordant le haut du châle est tricotée en même temps que le reste du châle. Le corps du châle, entièrement entouré d’un i-cord, est tricoté en rangs raccourcis au point mousse.
Eider est disponible en version unie ou bicolore. Vous aurez les deux PDFs disponibles une fois votre achat terminé.
