Pattern Corrections
Knit Issue 7
Loose Textured Cape, Cardigan and Sweater
Page 27
The circular needle length indicated in this pattern is 80cm in length.
This needle length is too long for the neck.
A 60cm length circular needle is suitable throughout.
Note: after working the 7 rows for the yoke the 1st row of 'The next 5 rows' is the increase row which gives 66(78)sts, then there are 2 more RS inc rows in these 5 rows which gives 82(94)sts, plus 11 more RS inc rows in the following rounds mentioned equals 170(182)sts.

Yarn requirement adjustment: Onyx is 2 balls instead of 1 ball.
Loose Textured Sweater

Where the pattern says to 'cont to inc on every RS row' under the subheading of 'The next 5 rows' replace the 'every RS row 'with 'every alt row'. As the sweater is knitted in the round on circular needles every row is a RS row.
Note: after working the first 7 rounds for the yoke the 1st row of 'The next 5 rows is the increase row which gives 66(78)sts then there are 2 more RS inc rows in these 5 rows [82(94)sts] then 11 more RS inc rows in the following rounds mentioned equals 170(182)sts.

Tension note: When large needles are used tensions vary a lot between knitters. This scarf looks great in a variety of tensions, therefore we advise knitters to enjoy the process and enjoy the result - the finished length or width may vary a little from the measurements given in this pattern.
When making Version 1, its best to work 60 rows using the first colour combination, 60 rows in the second colour combination and 60 rows in the third colour combination. The result should be a scarf of approx 168cm (laying flat not stretched). Working 60 rows of each colour combination will use up almost all of the Silkroad DK Tweed yarn (x 2 balls) and less than 2 balls of each of the cottons.
Finished length.
Version 1 - 168cm
Version 2 - 168cm (or length desired)

Although this is a simple garment, the making up can be confusing.
The diagram on page 25 unfortunately confuses the making up.
This garment is made simply from 3 rectangular sections.
Section 3, the collar is made from a simple rectangle, and is not a shaped piece, however in the diagram and is shown as shaded and draped which is confusing.
Section 2 is folded to the front along the dotted lines at right and left of section 3.
The Section 2 areas shown to the right and left of section 3 are therefore double thickness when laid flat.
The centre of Section 2, beneath the draped shaded collar section 3, should be single thickness when laid flat.
Collar placement
There is an error in finding the central position of section 1 for collar placement.
The pattern indicates "Place a marker 12cm to either side of centre point of bottom edge at front (or 12cm from sleeve.......
should read (or 14, 17 cm) from sleeve.
The missing i-cord pattern
Using 5.50mm double pointed needles cast on 7 sts.
*Slide sts back to right point of needle, k7.
Repeat from * until tie measures 150cm or length desired. Cast off.

BODICE
Shape armholes: Work 26(29)sts in Moss st (right front), cast off 6 sts, work Moss st for the Next 52(58)sts (back), - from here cont. as published.
This pattern can be worked more easily on circular needles after the bodice and sleeve sts are picked up for the yoke knitting.

Section 3, Ribbed Panel
Rows 1 - 6 ..... are correct, however remove the ** at the end of row 6.
Rows 7 - 12 Rep rows 1 to 6.
Rows 13 - 17 Rep rows 1 to 5.
Cast off in rib pattern.
Placement of the i-cords
The cord from section 1 is taken across to the cord from section 4. The cord from section 2 is taken across front to cord from section 5. Tie knots to fall at front of work.
Crochet Terms
The crochet edging and crochet ruffle are written in American crochet terms, therefore Australian's using this pattern will need to translate terms within this pattern, otherwise the ruffle may turn out too small.
The change is as follows:
1) sc (single crochet, as written in pattern) translates as dc (double crochet) for Australian's.
2) dc (double crochet, as written in the pattern) translates as tr (treble) for Australian's.
3) tr (treble, as written in the pattern) translates as dtr (double treble) for Australian's.
