oops! the pattern states that it uses 2 skeins of Lion Brand Kitchen Cotton. it actually uses 4 skeins!
the body length measurements on the schematic for Lorelei are incorrect. it should read 20.5" (21.25", 21.5", 22.25", 22.5").
Please note the following corrections to the Everything But The Kitchen Sink pattern. On page 104, under BACK, Raglan Shaping, the last paragraph should read;

in the book there is one size missing in the cast on numbers. the cast on numbers for Poppy should read 56(58, 60, 62, 62) sts.
under shape sleeve caps the remaining stitch count after the bind offs should read as follows; 48 (50, 51, 53, 53).
the sleeve schematic for Chelsea shows a set-in sleeve. this is an error. Chelsea has a drop shoulder sleeve with a total measurement of 25".

Poppy is my favorite sweater in Yarnplay. it was so much fun to knit! it's exciting to decide where you want to place garter stitch ridges and where you want to knit stripes in Silk Garden. i am really looking forward to seeing what you guys do with this pattern! i'd really like to knit one in shades of blue, but who knows when i'll get around to making that happen! please email me photos of your completed Poppy and i'll post them here.
now for a little errata business... there is a slight inconsistency amongst the schematics when it comes to sleeves. the sleeve schematic for Poppy gives measurements for the entire sleeve, including the sleeve cap. the measurements to the underarms are as follows; 20" (20", 20", 20.5", 20.5"). as you can see in the photo below this is meant to be a super long sleeve. if you want to lose an inch on the sleeve i suggest working 1 less round between increases, to lose 2 inches work 2 fewer rounds between increases. remember to subtract that inch or two from the the final sleeve measurement to armhole!
