Errata

Super Socks (before November 2023 update)

Page 30  “Change back to the 2.50mm DPNs that you used to start off your cuff” should read “change to 2.50mm DPNs”.

Page 33   Photo should be as below (current photo shows needle going into the back of the stitch to begin SSK, not the front):

Page 56   Photo should be as below (current photo shows needle going into the back of the stitch to begin SSK, not the front):

Page 95  6ply pattern  “For example, if knitting a man’s sock I would cast on 64 or 68 stitches”.  This should read 52 or 56 stitches.  (But it’s best to check with the Sock Stitch Calculation on page 20!)
