It's OK. It would be worse if you didn't care, and you obviously do. Yeah, errors are annoying and I like to complain about them, but, hey, you’re human and human beings make mistakes! It’s OK.

But when I read the bit about your "contract", I just had to laugh, as my partner and I have one of those too - although we neglected to include ritual suicide. And here I had thought we had all the issues covered! Oh well, after 15 years, it still gets amended regularly (usually to suit me, naturally)<br/><br/>Love the book, and don't worry about the errata - there really aren't too many.

Love the book, and don’t worry about the errata – there really aren’t too many.

All the time. Name one book or magazine that doesn't have at least one error. The only way to prevent it? Hire about fifty different tech editors and have them all knit every garment in every size. I bet there'd still be an error or two. You rock. No ritual suicide for you. dude, it HAPPENS. All the time. Name one book or magazine that doesn’t have at least one error.

I know how you feel though - "mine's perfect and that's that" is what you want to be able to say... Soooo true. But hey, knitting genious of the west, you ROCK and so does your knitting so there. I'm knitting my first ever top down raglan and I think of you every stitch of the way. Just imagine... I'm knitting just like Mandy... LOVE! xoxox Well over in Sweden you’re considered a knitting genious all the same, and as you said – ALL books have some errors.
