Errata:

  1. Row 159: There are 44 stitches per repeat needed at row 169: 44 stitches • 16 repeats = 704 in total. The error is located in row 159. There is a misplaced double-YO in the very center of the flower. But this double YO will lead to four additional stitches in row 168 (708 stitches instead of 704 stitches). Change the chart and put the double-YO to row 161 instead.

  2. Row 169: “8 M.v.” is missing, the pattern should start 8 stitches before, this will let the border be symmetric to the flowers.
