Errata for Volume 1

Son of Aran Pattern (Spring 2001)
When picking up for the back, please note that the stitch counts for all sizes are off by two stitches. There are two ways to rectify this: either cast on two additional stitches for the back neck (e.g., cast on 50, 50, 58, 66, and 66 sts for each size) or pick up an additional stitch in each saddle (e.g., 39, 43, 45, 45, 45).


Tulips Lace Vest Pattern (Summer 2001)
Where it says "Divide for armholes" it should read "Work across 63 (66, 71, 73, 76, 79) sts, bind off next 22 (30, 36, 46, 52, 58) sts, work across 112 (120, 128, 134, 146, 158) sts, bind off 22 (30, 36, 46, 52, 58) sts, work across rem 63 (66, 71, 73, 76, 79) sts.


I left out the specific instructions to bind off the same number of stitches the second time as you do the first time and to work the same number of stitches across the second half of the front as you did the first half.


Cross-Country Aran (Summer 2001)

I'm not at all sure where my head was on the day I wrote this pattern. Here are the corrections:
1. There are 34 stitches in each saddle. Where the instructions tell you to pick up stitches for the sleeve and knit across the 30 saddle stitches, substitute "34" for "30".
2. Under "Sleeves," the number for the first set of picked-up stitches for size M should be 42, not 46.
3. The total number of picked-up stitches for the sleeve (including the correct number of saddle stitches) should be (117, 117, 125, 129).
4. The sleeve decreases should read "work a double decrease at this seam stitch every 4th round (18, 19, 20, 23) times, then every 6th round 4 (4, 3, 0) times.


Aran Go Round (Winter 2001)

Round 3 is incorrect on both the chart and the written instructions. It should read:
*P6, k1, [knit into the back, then front, of next st and drop from LH needle; insert tip of LH needle behind vertical strand between the two sts just worked, and knit into it], k1, p7; rep from * around.
On Round 3 of the chart, there should be six purl sts (reading from right to left), followed by a black box, a vertical line, the symbol for the double increase, another vertical line, a black box, then seven purl sts.
