Is there an error in the decrease portion of this pattern? Where can I find corrections? Thanbks.
Hello! We’ve reached out to the designer for clarification and she or I will reply as soon as possible. Thanks! – Nicola
Still nothing on this?
Hello! Sorry for the delay. If you can provide additional information that would be great: basically for the decrease section, you are working the decrease on the same side as the increase following the same color sequence as for the increase section. Hope this helps! – Nicola, Editor
Sorry you could not get the corrections for me. I will figure something out myself.
It is obvious that the instructions here are wrong. The pattern states Rows 3-28 Repeat rows 1-3 3 more times. with 108 stitches remaining. So I think this should be Rows 3-8 Repeat rows 1-2 3 more times. This then continues to the end with the number of rows not matching the number of repeats called for. and the number of remaining stitches not matching.
Thanks anyway.
I’ve just passed this information along to the designer and she or I will reply once we review, thanks! – Nicola, Editor
