Errata

11 Dec 2007 Chart B, Row 9 or decrease pattern, was missing a k2tog. The pdf file has been updated.

22 Dec 2008 Chart A and B crown shaping charts are wrong; they have 2 more stitches than they should. The correction: for each row, the two edge stitches ( left and right) should not be there; and the decreases should be done on the next stitch in. I will update the pdf file asap.
