I haven't started on this project yet--waiting on some backordered yarn--but have this habit of reading through patterns just to see how they are constructed. Am the same way with recipes in books, most of which I never end up making. (I don't think that will be the case with these patterns though!) (2) In the "How to Fit Your Knits" section, the calculated example uses the wrong revised stitch count for the body (p. 15). The stitch total of 334 is correct but there should be 176 body stitches, not 172. Ditto for the section on waist shaping.

Thank you!) before separating the sleeves the final stich counts are 180 (192, 204, etc.) However, by my count the increas rounds increase the count by eight at a time, not twelve; where are the four extra stitches I'm missing? Thanks. I can’t find a way to leave comments on the errata page, so I’ll ask here: For the Alexandra sweater (which I love!

On the BMC...I knit my sleeves flat and them seam them. You can use DPN, the "magic loop" deal, or whatever works for you. AND! You're totally right, you can't leave a comment on the errata page! I have "comments allowed" checked in my Wordpress dashboard thing, but it doesn't show up. I'm still learning. SO...keep leaving them in comments, I guess. Or email me. That's less embarassing.

It is difficult to knit back and forth on such a small circumference. Am I missing something? Looking forward to knitting all patterns.
