On Oversize Graph C, the horizontal arrows don't match.

This is an easy fix which is why I don't think anybody has reported it before:

Just look on the other Oversize Graphs and you will find which arrow is correct.

I started highlighting the center channels on my project this morning and have run into a problem.  On Chart C the horizontal channel is fine.  However, when I went to mark the vertical channel I found that the top arrow is one square to the left of the bottom arrow.  I’ve checked and rechecked it and the arrows just don’t line up.  Is this an error in printing?  I’ve counted the actual graph squares across and it looks like the top arrow is the correct one. Is it?  I don’t want to start off with an error.

Ed: I don't know the answer to this one but it should be fairly easy to figure out. Here's how to do it: check the rest of the oversize graphs and if there is a consistency, change the offending arrow. Actually I should note: you can stitch the whole design without the arrows. Granted it is a bit more difficult, but it is do-able. You just have to think a bit. I know, painful.

Later in the day: Ruth-Anne wrote that she decided the upper (top) arrow was the accurate one and she would use it to stitch by.

From Carol C.

On Oversize Graph C, the placement of the top arrow is not correct. Cross out or whiteout the top arrow.

The bottom arrow is correct so draw your highlighted line from the bottom to the top.

From Ellen D.

.Began reading your Color Appendix instructions and thought this might be an error....

Under (3)..."Soie d'Alger #4914 med dark blue" is listed

Then, instructions begin "With #4912 medium dark blue:..."  Shouldn't this be #4914?

Ed. Yes, sorry.

I did also find one very minor error in the instructions-- on page 87 the tied cross stitch should read up at A, down at B, etc. instead of up at 1, down at 2.

Catherine's Sewing Case, Purple Colors

Correction: November 12, 2016

In the instructions I list Soie d'Alger #1341 as a color you need. It's not in your kit so please cross it off your supplies list.

Here's what I did:

When I kitted the design, I didn't like 1341 with 3333, so I changed my mind and eliminated it.

Rather than give you 3 strands of 1341 purple and 4 strands of 1342, I gave you 7 strands of 1342.

Whenever the instructions call for 4113 or 4114 (the original colors) use 1342.

I always start out thinking that alternative colors will translate directly from the original colors, but it doesn't always work that way.

This is one of those cases.

For those of you using the purples, you need only 2 spools of Bijoux (the instructions say you need 3).

Originally I listed 3 but my proofer told me 2 was all it took. I changed the 'original colors' list but forgot to change the purples.

Heart of Elizabeth

Correction

page 16 the last sentence should read:

Work 5 more rows for a total of 6 rows as illustrated on the graph below.

(Not Work 3 more rows for a total of 4 rows).

Additional corrections from Carol GC 

Last paragraph on p. 10 - you actually need 3 more rows, for a total of 4 rows.

Next to last line on p. 22 - reference should be to steps 1-4 on page 21.

Step 6 on p. 24 -- you actually finished Heart of Elizabeth, not Small Pink Roses and Pearls Heart .
