Winter 2001/2002

Ladder of Life Socks(page 10)
The last part of the toe decreases should read: Rep Rnd 1 only until 8 (12) sts rem.

Tweedy Aran Cardigan (page 18)
Instructions for two of the chart symbols are incorrect. They should read:
1/1LC: sl 1 st onto cn and hold in front, k1 tbl, k1tbl from cn.
1/1PLC: sl 1 st onto cn and hold in front, p1, k1 tbl from cn.
That’s sl 1 at the beginning of the 1/1LC correction, instead of sl 2.

Cappuccino Pullover (page 22)
The sleeve caps are too narrow for the armholes. The corrected sleeve instructions are below.
Each size will require 1 more skein of yarn—9 (9, 10, 11, 12) balls.

Grandma's Cardigan(page 48)
The chart key is missing a symbol: p on RS; k on WS

XOX Pullover(page 54)
Row 24 of the Ribbing Chart (page 56) has two purl dots that shouldn't be there. Reading from right to left, the chart should read: K3, p2, k3, p1, k2, p4, k2, p1, k3, p2, k6, p2, k3, p1, k2, p4, k2, p1, k3, p2, k3.

Lightning-Bolt Family (page 64)
On the back, work St st for 5 rows (not 6) before working k1, p1 ribbing.

Baby Born (page 76)
The sweater plus hat require 4 (4, 5) skeins of yarn.

Diamond Upon Diamond (page 96)
Two of the color designations on the chart key (page 98) are incorrect. The symbols for amber and ginger should be transposed (i.e, what is designated as amber should be worked with ginger and vice versa). The yarn requirements for these two colors are also transposed—you'll need 4 (4, 5, 6, 6) balls of ginger and 3 (3, 4, 5, 5) balls of amber.
