A month, I've been queueing for a month!
I had a look on the preview video while I was on the site checking where I am in the queue and it looks really good.

i've just got it! waited for about 2 months. it's pretty good so far, although i haven't had much time to look around...

yes I think they're stepping up the invitation rate drastically. and yes it is good although I have not the time to do the photo thing. It is just great being able to check out a pattern and see how different people have knitted it. Maybe we will start a mumsnet group once we are all on?

Yes I'd be up for that, I do know a couple of ladies in rl who knit but, neither of them uses a computer recreationally ifyswim.
