Thanks for these corrections, will save me getting frustrated later. I'm puzzled by instructions for 'baby cozy' sizes state 0-3 (3-6, 6-12) months but instructions are for one size only.......which one is it? And where can I get alternate size instructions? Hope you can help.Julie
Yeah, that's in the errata--the pattern is written for only one size, 0-3 months, because my experience showed me that I stood no chance of squeezing a squirming older baby into one.
However if you want to make a larger size, I could give you some tips for adapting the pattern...
Can I please check instructions for Noah jumper? Decreasing k2 sl sl knit to last 4 k2 tog k k. Why isn't pattern symmetrical?
Sorry nikki, all sorted out
Hi! I need help with the striped boatneck page 70...I did size 0-3 and I think the sleeve is so long... What is the measure for the sleeves??? Thanks in advance!!
The sleeve length for 0-3 is 22 cm. If that feels long to you, you can easily just stop knitting earlier, or increase slightly more frequently, and it should be fine.
Thanks!!! I'll try
Hi!
Has the French edition been adjusted? The edition is 2013 for Canada. Thank you
The French addition has most of these errors cleared up, but if you spot any, please let me know!
Hi there, I just cannot get the neck right for the Noah sweater (everything else is finished). So when I pick up the stitches I have the work facing me (with the pocket facing me) picking up with my left needle working left to right? Then when they are all picked up I knit a row (so working from back of piece to the front again?) I just don't seem to get the garter stitch effect but rather a stocking stitch which doesn't look anywhere near as nice. Thanks for your help!
Well, it sounds like I pick up sts in the other direction. The garter is actually brought on by the subsequent row and cast off, but if it isn't working out right for you, why don't you try picking up sts with WS facing? That might get the effect you want.
Just want to check on the Autumn Leaves sweater: Row 22 within the stars is printed *yb, p2, k3, p2, yb, sl1, k1, pssp, k1, k2tog, repeat from *; wondering if it is supposed to read *yo, p2, k3, p2, yb, sl1, k1, psso, k1, k2tog, repeat from * Thanks
Well, the "pssp" is certainly a typo, but actually we chose "yb" because it's a clearer description of what is required there. Yarn back, meaning leave your yarn in the back of your knitting, and then purl. And then take the yarn back again.
The way you've written it is certainly also correct.
Hi Nikki, Expecting my first and knitting up the Noah jumper. I have the UK 2012 edition and have started on the sleeves in 0-3mths. I am at the bottom of page 26 and have knitted to 28 stitches but am stuck. The instructions read repeat from * 9(11,13) times more and next row: p to end then cast off all sts. However there is no * from which to repeat from and it doesn't say how many stitches you should be casting off hence I can't make it up either? I have checked Ravelry for clues but no comments there either, Can you help please? Best wishes, Fiona
Hi,
Oh dear, that is confusing! It should read "Repeat from *** 9 (11, 13)X more."
Thanks Nikki, having re-read it without a muddled baby brain I guessed that was what shuld happen. I am really pleased with how it has come along. Just a little more to do on the front and then its time to sew up and pick up the neck stitches. I followed your colour choices in a debbie bliss cotton yarn and will post teh end results on Ravelry. Many thanks, Fiona
Hi Nikki, Looking at the errata page does the Maile sweater come in different sizes in your book? I'd love to knit this in a 9-12 mo size as my daughter will be 3 months in May. A pretty hot month in Texas.
Yes! The Maile Sweater is available in 0-3 months, 3-6 months, and 6-12 months.
Hi Nikki,
I'm a bit confused with the shorts page 58 of the uk edition.
I have both legs done; one on the regular needles and one on the circular needles but i am now stuck... I have knitted the extra row and casted on the extra 4 stiches on each but i don't know how to "join to work in the round" those two separate pieces.
Could you please explain me how to do it?
Thanks!
Franck.
It's very simple, once you get your head around it--you just keep knitting! You should have all your stitches on the same set of circular needles, so you just place your marker, and then knit the next stitch. It feels very awkward at first--you've got lots of stitch pulling at each other around the legs, but it'll loosen up after five rows or so, and then you'll be in the clear.
Thanks Nikki for your reply but unfortunatelly i didn't manage to do it so after a couple of attempts i had to give up... I will try to find an easier pattern later but for now i will knit the baby cozy.
Thanks,
Franck.
I'm having trouble with the Time Flies Booties. It's the part after row 18, you're supposed to have 48sts, which I did. Then, row 19 decreases by 4sts (yf,k2tog)x4=44. Next row knit. Then, the next row decreases by 6 (sl sl k)x3 (k2tog)x3=38, but I'm supposed to have 42sts by the time I'm finished row 21. Please help, even if it's my error. Thank you!
The stitch count does end up being 42 by the end, because 18 + 3 +3 + 18 = 42.
I think your error is in not working the yarnovers. There is no decrease on Row 19--the yf cancels out the k2tog. And then six sts are decreased on Row 21, bringing it from 48 to 42 sts.
Thank you! I'm still sort of a newb, so I wasn't sure how to work the yf's. I did't know that they were yarn over increases. How do you do work that kind of yo? Thanks again. Just wanted to say that I love your book, and I am happy to say that I made your bib for my two niece's, and they looked great!
It's just the same as a regular yarnover--I had a British publisher, and "yf" is how they write yarnover. I'm so glad you're enjoying the patterns! And if you can do the attached i-cord on the bib, you're hardly a newb!
Emily dress - 6-12 months (Canadian edition). I've run out of yarn! :( 3 balls don't seem to be enough for the largest size which is a real pain when the shipping costs are $10, which is tough when you're only ordering 1 more ball...
I'm so sorry to hear this, and thank you for letting me know...that is so frustrating, I'm sorry again!
Autumn leaves sweater... CONFUSED... End of back and sides should it be:
A) *work 5 rows straight keeping 4 edge sts in seed stitch as established.
Next row: k1 p1 k1 p1 (etc).repeat from * 5 times more. 119 sts --- similar to the book
OR
B) work 5 rows straight keeping 4 edge sts in seed stitch as established. Next row: * k1 p1 k1 p1 (etc.) Repeat from * 5 times more. 119 sts --- as per errata above.
Option B seems like it would make for a very short sweater? Don't know how you'd get to the 12 inch (13.5 / 14.75) length with option B
According to the row gauge, working 6 rows a total of 6 times should make it long enough, but if it's not as long as you like, I'd sugges putting more rows in between increases to get it where you want it to!
Right, but in your correction above, you only repeat the increase rows, not the other 5. So the * should move back to the place where it is in the book.
Ah, I'm sorry that's unclear. I was changing the instructions, not the number of rows. I'll retype--thank you for pointing it out!
Some adorable patterns thank you so much! But question regarding the bloomers pattern error.
In the book I see:
k2,yf,k2,yf,k2.
The correction is:
K2, (yf) 2x, K2.
I am just confused becuase I am not sure how to do a yf twice without a stitch afterit. Or maybe I'm reading this wrong. A yf is a yo, right?
It is, and it feels a little surprising to do a yarnover two times in a row, but that's all you do--flip your yarn over your needle once, and then do it again. You'll knit into the front and then the back of those sts when you work the next row--it's done to create a big hole.
Hi, I love the old man cardigan and would love to make it for a toddler. How can I adapt the pattern for a 4 year old? Thanks!
Well, the simplest thing is to figure out the chest circumference you want to reach, and then work the raglan yoke until you reach that circumference, minus of course the sleeve sts. I would cast on more sts to make the neckline bigger, and of course work the body and sleeves longer.
Hi Nikki,
I have just attempted the autumn leaves cardi and after several mistakes I'm finally happy with it. I now want to attempt the Maile cardi and have checked your errata for the UK edition but am a little confused. I intend to make the small size so do your changes for the yoke mean that I skip the following rows:
*K12, K2tog, repeat from * to last 3 sts, k3 (81)
Next row: k to end
or knit those two rows then apply your corrections?
Hi Claire,
You should replace the neckline shaping in the book with the errata here--the numbers don't work out quite in the book.
Hello Nikki,
I am new to knitting and I am making Ike's Sweater Vest. I have finished the right and left shoulder for the back. I have transfered the sts from the holder to the needle. How long do I work the front until "RIGHT NECK (FRONT).
Thank you
S
Hi,
You don't need to work even on the Front at all; the instruction to work in rows is just to let you know that you're no longer working in the round. Begin working the Right Front section right away!
Oh, hahaha, I see it now. thank you so much.
Hi there!
Love the book! The patterns are really cute - I've made several projects from it already. Glad I found this page though! Seems I've picked all the patterns with errors :)
Just a quick question - working on the Hanna jacket (its sooo beautiful) I'm working on the body and I've just done the first row placing all the markers. I'm now going to work 5 rows then do the second "Next row". It then says to repeat from * 2(3,4) times more. There is no single * though - does it mean repeating from ***? So doing 5 more row between each increase row?
Thanks...
That does mean "repeat from ***," you are exactly right. Sorry about the confusion!
