Corrections for The Summer Breeze Collection
The corrections apply to the designs
Ivy, Jasmine,
Marguerite, Poppy and Melissa.
Ivy, p 13:
Vest and jacket front: I have written "bind off for
armhole as for back" - that should be "shape
armhole as for back".
Shoulders are worked with short rows.
Back shoulder shaping, I have miscalculated for size XL:
after leaving 8 sts on the first short row, the following
short rows should be worked 6 sts shorter (not 5), so you end up with 8+6+6+6
sts = 26 sts.
Jasmine, p. 26: There is a yarnover missing in the chart; it should be placed on row 5 before the first decrease. Row 5 should read, starting at the right edge:
k1, yo. k1, yo, ssk, p1, k2tog, k2tog, yo, k5, yo, k1. Thus restoring the original stitch count.
Marguerite, chart p. 36: A symbol (an inverted V with a dot) is lacking in the list of chart symbols on p.63: The symbol should read p3tog, purl 3 sts together.
Poppy, p. 48: There is a mistake in the instructions for the front and back neck. I probably discovered a discrepancy of 2 sts and corrected the wrong piece thereby doubling the discrepancy instead of eliminating it. So sorry!
Back:
...At neck edge bind off 2 sts 2 times... This will give you 18 (20) 22 (23) 26 sts for the shoulder.
Front: ...At neck edge bind off 2 sts (instead of 3) 2 times and 1 st 4 times. You will
end up with 18 (20) 22 (23) 26 sts for the shoulder here as well.
Melissa, p. 54: There is a mistake in the chart, on rows 43 and 44: At this point in the pattern the leaf contains 11 sts (including the yarnovers made on row 43). On those two rows there should be 10 purl sts on either side of the leaf, making a total of 31 sts. Consequently the two columns of black squares should consist of 7 squares each, not 8 as shown.
Also, there are purls marked in places where they shouldn't be: at
the outer edges of the second tier of leaves (rows 34, 36 and 38), just above
the decreases. These squares should be empty - the stitches should be purled on
the WS, as should the corresponding sts on the top leaf; the stitches on rows
46, 48, 50 and 52 just above the decreases.
Instructions for knit and purl blocks have been mixed up on the fronts; To ensure that knit blocks meet purl blocks:
Left Front: Size M + XL: begin and end with k10.
Right Front:
Size S + L: begin with k10 and end with p10. Size M + XL: begin and end with p10.
I'm sorry!
