Translated from manuscript knitting notes in the Eleanor Roosevelt Papers of the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Presidential Library and Museum.

Erratum: The stitch counts at the end of Round 23 are incorrect. They should be 53 (for the smaller size) and 65 (for the larger). Subsequent stitch counts should be amended accordingly. I’ve written to Knitty to ask for the corrections to be made ASAP.
