(If you have downloaded version 2, these errors have already been corrected and you can ignore this!)

Version 1 Errata:

There is an error in the Swatching section on page 8. The swatch should say:

Knit a swatch by casting on 31 stitches loosely on the medium/size US 3/3.25 mm size needles. The same needles will be used for the entire gauge swatch.

• Knit 3 rows to create a garter band.

• Wrong side: Knit 1 stitch. Purl to the last stitch. Knit 1 stitches.

• Knit 1 stitches. Beginning on stitch 1 of the chart, work row 33 of the Estonian Starflower chart all the way to the end, stitch 45. Then, knit 1 selvage stitch on the other side of the chart.

• Work all wrong side rows as established.

• Continue on as established, working rows 35 – 47 of the Estonian Starflower chart.

• Repeat rows 33 – 39 of the Estonian Starflower chart.

• Knit 3 rows to create a garter band.

• Bind off.

There was an error on the Sleeve Charts on page 10. The “Shift 1 Left” and “Shift 1 Right” should read:

1 Shifted Left – This row has 1 fewer stitches at the beginning of the row than indicated on the chart. Work the first stitch cluster as knit 4 instead of the indicated knit 5. All the remaining clusters are the same until the last stitch. There will be 1 extra stitch at the end of the row. Knit it.

1 Shifted Right – This row has 1 extra stitch at the beginning of the row. Knit this extra stitch. Work as indicated by the chart to the last stitch cluster. This cluster will have 1 fewer stitches than indicated. Work the last stitch cluster as knit 4 instead of the indicated knit 5.

If you have downloaded the update, this has been corrected already.
