More Sensational Knitted Socks Errata

Hi all, I was reading some digests on a yahoo group I belong to and found out that there is some corrections for the More Sensational Socks book. Here is the link to it: http://www.martingale-pub.com/Information/Corrections/B819_cor.htm

There even seem to be mistakes with the errata. The corrections page says changes are highlighted in yellow or with bold face, neither of which shows up in the corrections.

I tried the toe-up instructions for six-stitch patterns and am finding it to be more trouble than it's worth. For example, the row 3 and row 4 instructions in the first set (seems odd that the short-row section has two sets of rows numbered 1-4) call for placing markers in positions where there is no stitch to hold them (the first time you do those rows). Also, repeating rows 3 and 4 in the second set until all markers are removed seems to leave me on the wrong side of the work. I may have done something wrong, but I don't generally have these sorts of problems with patterns.

I'm sad; this book has some wonderful looking sock patterns, but I don't want to waste yarn and time on poorly edited patterns.
