Pattern Correction: (applicable to printed book only, PDF has been updated)
In the BODY section, the first row after the cast on should read: Next Row (WS): K1, work in Lace Pattern (worked flat) to last stitch, k1
The original pattern listed p1 at the beginning and end of the row, but k1 is needed to properly establish the reverse stockinette selvedge stitches.

Back:
