  • Clara errata

    Well, dang.

    In this portion,

    Work 9 [9, 8, 8, 7, 7, 6, 6] rounds even.
    Next (Inc) Round: k1, m1, k to 1 st before next marker, m1, k1, sl m, k1, m1, k to 1 st before next marker, m1, k1.
    Work 9 [9, 8, 8, 7, 7, 6, 6] rounds even.
    Repeat the last 10 [10, 9, 9, 8, 8, 7, 7] rounds …

    The second “Work 9[9, 9, 8, 8, 7, 7, 6, 6] rounds even” should have been omitted. So it should go like this:

    Work 9 [9, 8, 8, 7, 7, 6, 6] rounds even.
    Next (Inc) Round: k1, m1, k to 1 st before next marker, m1, k1, sl m, k1, m1, k to 1 st before next marker, m1, k1.
    Repeat the last 10 [10, 9, 9, 8, 8, 7, 7] rounds …

    I really hope this reaches everyone who ordered a copy of the pattern up to today; I think that was just four or five copies though. The pattern will be corrected and will be on sale at lettuce knit tomorrow.

    So sorry about that!

    Now back to some head-down, get-it-done knitting. Well, finishing, technically. Lots of sewing up to do.

  • Callie Cardigan

    After a couple of days of intensive pattern-writing, and a self-timered photoshoot on my back deck, I FINALLY have the pattern for my O-Wool Balance cardigan ready for sale! The yarn works up into a lovely light, tweedy fabric and the yardage is fab!
