You may guess I'm not the most technically adept person out there. No, I won't be sending a leaf because I haven't knit since I was 12. But, now that you've asked I may be able to come up with something woven in the future. I'm in the process of developing a much simpler and cheaper, under $5, loom. Nothing like real world teaching to find out my original design was too complicated ... Live and learn. Thanks, Phyllis - Cortez,CO <em>I look forward to seeing your woven leaves for the TikkunTree once you've completed your experiments. Leslie</em> Hello!,
