      Oh that's an exciting challenge! This is quite an easy pattern, Pamela, as it's mainly knit stitches (just four purls in the whole thing!) and grows quickly, but my favourite is Quercus because it is easy to remember the pattern repeat and to see the right and wrong sides of the work to decide which row you're on next. It's also easy to make Quercus bigger if you want to, by just working more pattern repeats. A good combination of the two designs is Gingersnap, though, which is mainly knit sts too and with a small pattern repeat. I hope this helps!!

        Thank you! I'm about to finish my second one today and THEN I'll be able to make one for myself. It's so pleasurable to knit - don't think I'll ever stop!

      Thank you so much. I have found the pattern on the Loveknitting site, ordered it with the wool too. Very pleased to have this lovely design.

        That's great! What colour are you making? My new one is in Era, but I'm already thinking about ANOTHER one in Sonata
