7/5/2010: The rounds for the heel should read like this:

Round 1: Needle 1: k1, ssk, knit to last 4 sts, k3tog, k1; needle 2: k1, ssk, knit to last 3 sts k2tog, k1. – 68 sts remain (34 each needle).
Round 2: Knit.
Round 3: Needle 1: k1, ssk, knit to last 3 sts, k2tog, k1; needle 2: k1, ssk, k to last 3 sts, k2tog, k1.

I.B. Footsie:

    I have a question about a pattern for your wintersweet scarf in Knit magazine. I’m part way through and have found two – I guess typos – : row 1 of hood should say to pearl, I guess since the last previious row was knit….
    Neck row 1 says to knit 33 (k2tog) 20 times. It should be knit 3 .

    So I’m wondering if there are any other errors I need to know before I continue to put hours into this before I find a mistake….. The left scarf alone for 30 inches I figure will take me 15 hours!!!

    Barbara,
    Thank you for contacting me. The first row of the hood does say Purl. And the neck is correct. You want to sl1, k33, [k2tog] 20 times, k33, p1 – 88 sts remain.
    You actually sl1, knit all 33 sts, then do the k2tog 20 times with no other sts in between, then k33 again, and then p1.

    There is one thing correction to the pattern: Page 86-87 Hood Correction: Rep Rows 3 and 4 nineteen more times, then work Row 3 once more—108 sts total.

    But if you already got to the neck, you would have passed this error on your own.

    Hope this helps!

Heather and Sarah welcome you to Crafty Detour. What is Crafty Detour?

It’s kind of like a podcast, but without audio. A place where Sairy Knits and Digitalnabi come together to provide a two part perspective where other blogs usually only provide one. It’s truly a detour from our usual blogging which we will continue to do on our own sites. CraftyDetour is a joint venture that will enable collaborative projects in the future.

Heather is the creative director for The Alpaca Yarn Company. She also designs knitwear, teaches, and blogs here: digitalnabi.com. She’s web programmer by day, a designer by night and a knitter always.

Sarah is a researcher/analyst for a stock indexing company – a job that keeps her on her toes! She has been knitting since starting graduate school for Applied Statistics in 2005.  Sarah knits, spins, and dyes yarn and roving for her etsy shop: Stitches ‘n Rows. Her personal blog is Sairy Knits where she tries to blog about finished objects, test knitting, her fat cat Haley, food, and whatever else is on her mind when she can remember.
