Natty Neck Ruff, page 22
Row 2 is missing in the directions! What reads "Rows 3-5" should read "Rows 2-5."

 

Chunky Funky Scarf, page 32
Note that the yarn should be held double throughout the scarf.

 

Chic Cabled Bag, page 60
The height of the bag is incorrect; it should end at 21 rows:

Row 20 Repeat Row 18.
Row 21 Repeat Row 17.

Comments

Chic Cabled Bag

There's a couple errors.

The Front/Back panels should be for 21 rows, not 30 (that makes it 5 Right Crosses per column, not 7)to line up with the gusset.

Doesn't list where you can purchase the Faux Leather handles

thanks!

good catch on the number of rows in the pattern!

As for handles, craft stores carry a large selection of handles.

Graceful Lacy Cardigan, page 54

Do I need new glasses, or is this pattern missing something; namely, instructions for a starting chain and number of stitches?

starting this pattern

Under "Yoke" it says Fsc 28 (28, 28, 28, 31, 31, 34, 34). You can find the instructions for working the Fsc on page 54, in the second column of special abbreviations.
