Pattern Correction: Cable-edged Bib

After comparing my finished bib to the pattern I wrote last night, I noticed a mistake in the instructions for the neck bands.

Update Since I started knitting another bib, and so have the chance to check this pattern, I realized that my first numbers for this section was in fact correct. But, you might like the bands to be longer, so I'm including the both numbers. (The extra repeat adds about an inch to the bands.) The pattern has been updated to read as follows:

Button band
Next Row (WS) Follow Chart B to end.
Dec 1 st at neck edge on next and following alternate rows until 8 sts are left. Remove m. Now, you will return to following the full Cable Chart.
Repeat Rows 1-6 of Cable Chart 4 (5) times, then Repeat Rows 1-2 once more.
Next Row (RS) P all.
Next Row (WS) K all.
BO all sts.

Buttonhole band
Join in yarn on WS, p3, sm, follow Chart A to end.
Dec 1 st at neck edge on next and following alternate row until 8 sts are left. Remove m. Follow the full Cable Chart.
Repeat Rows 1-6 of the Cable Chart 3 (4) times, then follow the Cable Chart to Row 5.
Next Row (WS) K2, p2, yo, p2, k2. (9 sts)
Next Row (RS) P2, k1, k2tog, k2, p2. (8 sts)
Next Row (WS) K2, p4, k2.
Next Row (RS) P all.
Next Row (WS) K all.
BO all sts.

Soon-to-be baby bibs

I will actually make a couple more of these bibs over the weekend, last minute gifts for family and a coworker. If I find more mistakes, I will update the pattern with corrections. Hrm, perhaps I can add variations for the edges, since really, you can use any edge with this project. Here are some random skeins of yarn that, I think, will be perfect for baby bibs. Don't you agree?

  • Rowan handknit cotton (red, tan, navy blue).
  • Cotton ribbon from a recycled sweater (light blue).
  • Cotton(?) yarn from Sophie's Yarns (pink).
