A Year of Techniques (First edition only)
On page 87, the yarn required for the Yellow Wagtail Scarf by Sarah Hatton is listed as Shetland Heritage Aran with a length of 90m per 50g ball. The yarn required is actually Shetland Aran Worsted with a length of 61m per 50g ball. Yarn quantities are not affected by this correction.
On page 96, the Hedera Helix sock pattern is missing the instruction to knit 1 round, after casting on and before working the first increase round.
In the instructions for the small size of Shaila Mittens, the thumb placement in on round 17 where the stitches above the waste cast on are stranded. These can be trickier to knit across than non-stranded stitches, so you may find it easier to move the thumb placement for both left and right mittens up 2 rounds (to round 19).
On page 112, the Oorik tank top pattern is missing the instruction to break yarns at the end of step 2, prior to casting on for the steeks.

Something NEw to learn about cables
Pleione Blanket page 70. The needle requirements should include another set of 4mm [US 6] circular needles, 100cm [40in] long for the blanket edging. Also, on page 82 in step 7 Edging, it says, “sl 18 sts from waste yarn to circular needle, k18”, it would be more accurate to say “knit these 18 stitches” rather than simply k18.
