BOX STITCH COAT (Pg 93)
Measurements diagram doesn't show front lower edge to lapel shaping:

Measurement from lower edge to armhole shaping is 76cm.
Right and left front lower edge measures 26(28,30,34) cm each side.
FISHERMANS RIB SWEATER (pg 99)
1. Front and Back pieces are placed ‘sideways’ on the sweater. Note horizontal position of the fisherman’s rib on the sweater.
2. Keep track of the wrong and right side of the garment, this is critical as the increase/cast on side ‘mirrors’ the decrease/cast off side.
The 28cm will eventually form the wrist circumference.
3. As this yarn is heavy, garment will drop when worn.

CABLE WRAP
After the rib band for the sleeves, the pattern states: end on C row. This is an error, instead it should read: end on WS row, same as for the back and fronts, since the next row is the establishment row and indicates at the beg: RS.
