There is an error in the numbering of the rounds in the striped section of sock. There are two rounds labeled: 12 (16, 16). Each round is correct, but the numbering of rounds should be 13 (17, 17) on the second set of instructions, and the numbering of all rounds after that are affected by this change as well.
