Bloopers, “Wrapped in Comfort”

On page 22, the Concert Scarf, I apparently gave the American needle size only rather than the metric size as well, and the size 8 got extrapolated in the wrong direction. It should say size 8 American and size 5 mm.

I find the system of using a yarn ball icon to describe the weight of a yarn is one that becomes less exact as the yarns get thinner. There are five shawls in the book using the baby alpaca in fingering weight that Pacific Meadows Alpacas carries, and I did not notice that they were assigned various 1, 2, and 3 yarn ball icons. They are, simply, fingering weight. I would say, when in doubt, look first to my written description of the yardage/weight ratio when considering substitute yarns. Swatch, swatch, honest, always do a swatch, it really does help.

I got this message re an error in a chart (thank you, Kellie): “Page 54, rows 24 and 32, 14 stitches in from the right there is a YO missing just before the set of end stitches.”

Wanda’s shawl, chart on page 32: row 33, tenth square from the right, should be a knit stitch.
