I'm knitting what looks like cobweb right now out of some sock yarn I didn't want to make socks out of. Thought it would be good to make this out of for the first time to see how it came out. Arbre on Ravelry.

I think my comment got missed at the bottom of the page.

Sunday night 8pm for a zoom chat? So long as my migraine is gone by then. I've planned it on zoom so I don't forget, but it can easily be moved if it doesn't suit. Thinking an evening so some who couldn't make the last one can make this one.

Sunday sounds good...most evenings next week are no good as I'm going to be doing a Yin yoga teacher training course virtually with someone in British Columbia!

Re the complexity, the pattern is quite easy, repetitive but if you slip up, it buggers the whole thing! Also starting off, I had slippery needles/yarn syndrome so my first two attempts ended up with the needles slipping out of the stitches...Grrrrr!
