    24 September 2012: (Version 2.0):

    The wording has been clarified in the sections for Shaping Neck and Shoulders on both Right and Left Fronts:

    Page 5, Column 1: Paragraphs 10 and 11 have been changed to read as follows: “Bind off 1 stitch at the beginning of the next 11 (11, 12, 11, 11, 12) RS rows. AT THE SAME TIME, when armhole measures 7 (7¼, 7¾, 8¼, 8¾, 9¼), ending with a RS row, shape Shoulder as follows…”

    Page 5, 1st Column (Right Front): The first paragraph under the “Shape Armholes” should read as follows: “Bind off 4 (5, 6, 7, 8, 9) stitches at the beginning of the next row (WS), then 3 stitches at the beginning of the next WS row, then 0 (2, 2, 2, 2, 2) stitches at the beginning of the following 0 (1, 1, 1, 1, 1) WS row – 36 (38, 42, 46, 50, 54) stitches remain.”

    Page 6, 1st Column (Left Front): The first paragraph under the “Shape Armholes” should read as follows: “Bind off 4 (5, 6, 7, 8, 9) stitches at the beginning of the next row (RS), then 3 stitches at the beginning of the next RS row, then 0 (2, 2, 2, 2, 2) stitches at the beginning of the following 0 (1, 1, 1, 1, 1) RS row – 36 (38, 42, 46, 50, 54) stitches remain.”
