Corrections in issue 107

We're sorry, we have a couple of corrections for the subscribers-only slippers pattern in issue 107:

They should be knitted with the yarn double, to achieve the correct tension. So follow the pattern as follows:

 

Cast on 29 sts using 5mm needles and the yarn doubled.

Row 1 Ktbl to end of row, to form a neat edge.

Row 2 (WS) (K1, P1), rep to last st, K1.

Row 3 (K1, P1), rep to last st, K1.

Row 4 P1, K9, P1, K7, P1, K9, P1.

Row 5 Knit.

Repeat rows 4 and 5 until work measures 10cm from the cast on row ending with RS facing for next row.

Sorry for any confusion.

Correction in Simply Knitting 104

We have a correction for the Country Casual jumper on page 12 of issue 104, sorry.

For the SHAPE BACK NECK section the number of stitches following "With RS facing slip sts from first section to a stitch holder..." and "...stitches from second section" should be as follows:

Crossword and sudoku - issue 103

We've noticed a couple of issues with the crossword in Simply Knitting 103. Two of the white squares should be black, sorry.

The square before the one numbered '12' should be black, and the square in between 25 and 26 should be black. So please ignore these ones!
