Blossom
(corrections made in patterns printed after 10/26/2005)

Yardage: 525 (625, 735, 845) yds.

Additional notes:
9) Attached I-cord: (on-site demo) Start by picking up stitches along the edge to which the I-cord is to be attached. Break the yarn, and cast 2 stitches onto the right-hand needle. Slip these stitches onto the front end of the left-hand needle, such that the working yarn is 2 stitches in, next to the first edge stitch. Begin by knitting 1 stitch, pulling the working yarn across the back. The 2nd stitch is knit together with the first stitch in the edging, through the back loops. Replace 2 sts from right-hand needle to left-hand needle. Repeat for each row of I-cord, knitting stitch 2 together with its corresponding edge stitch, through the back loops. For a 3-st attached I-cord, knit the first 2 sts, then knit the 3rd st together with the edge st, through the back loops. Replace 3 sts to the left-hand needle.
10) I-cord: (on-site demo) With double-point needles, cast on 2 sts. Instead of turning the work to knit the first row, slide the stitches down such that the first stitch you will knit is at the opposite end of the stitches from the working yarn. Pull the working yarn across the back and knit two stitches. Slide the stitches again, give the cord end a tug, pull the yarn across the back and knit two stitches. Add some tension for the first stitch, so the working yarn is pulled really tightly across the back. Repeat this process until the cord is the desired length. End by binding off.

Finishing (p. 3):
Under "Hem" picot edging is explained in note 7, not note 6.
Between "Hem" and "Neck and ties" add the following:
Sleeves: Sew shaped raglan edges and underarm bound off edges to sweater fronts and back. Sew sleeve seam from underarm to cuff.
