Badcaul socks:

Instructions for foot read: "Rpt rounds 1-16 until foot (etc)". Should read "Rpt rounds 1-6 until foot (etc)."

Instructions for heel read: "Continue wrapping as set until there are sixteen wrapped stitches and sixteen live stitches (the row where you P14 is where you stop)." Should read "Continue wrapping as set until there are sixteen wrapped stitches and fourteen live stitches

Thanks Anna! I'm working on a different pair of socks now, but my plan is to learn the magic loop method over the summer and make Badcaul next.
Enjoy your summer!

Hi Anna, unfortunately i found some more errata:

Under Stitch instructions on the first page, it reads "wrap: (RS) with yarn at back of work, slip stitch purlwise. Bring yarn to front of work around back of slipped stitch. Pass
slipped stitch back to left needle. Turn work, bring yarn to front to complete wrap." it should actually read- "wrap: (RS) with yarn IN FRONT of work, slip stitch purlwise. Bring yarn around back of slipped stitch. Pass slipped stitch back to left needle. Turn work, bring yarn to front to complete wrap."

If you follow the original directions for the short row heel, you end up with holes in the short row, and it looks terrible. I only realized it was incorrect on the second sock, so I am going to rip back to the heel on the first sock and redo it.

Oh well.

Emmie
