Pattern available in the Fall issue of Clotheshorse

Errata:

1) When working decreases on body pieces and sleeves, it will be necessary to work a decrease row on the wrong side sometimes. To work a WS dec row: P1, ssp, work to 3 sts before end of row, p2tog, p1 -- 2 sts dec’d.

2) RS and WS rows are listed incorrectly on the plaid chart. It will be easiest to simply ignore the RS/WS notations, and just be sure you are knitting the plaid chart in Stockinette stitch. **
