Flowers and Lattice Kit - This is such an awesome project and has great rhythm to weave, but there are a couple of typos:
Threading: 1Black, 1Purple, 1Wine should say "reading from left to right", to be accurate in the photo.
Also using the silk for the wrap: I nearly cried as I saw the flower pattern come out. The flower pattern should should read: "D,D,C,C,D,C,C,D,D" - the C's and D's are opposite in the written pattern and create a lattice where a flower should be, as shown in the photo. I chose to live with the error, but it is disappointing as the silk is quite expensive (to me, anyway).
Hello Ann,
I am the designer of the Flowers and Lattice Kit, and want to apologize to you about the typo. When it comes to the flowers in the silk wrap you were correct, if you want all the flowers to look the same then D,D,C,C,D,C,C,D,D is the way to get them. We will correct the pattern going forward.
With respect to the threading, we went back and forth about how to word it, and the "reading from right to left" was in reference to reading the diagram on the page itself, not at the loom. When I added the "at the loom" section I should have changed it to "reading from left to right", you are correct. I'm glad we put the key point in there, that every 3rd and 6th thread should be black. That was the key takeaway.
You're a good editor! Thank you for catching and commenting, this will help other weavers. Again, I am very sorry about the errors. I will up my checking on future patterns from three times to more.

Hi Rebecca - I LOVED making this kit and my comments are certainly not meant as a criticism. The colours are so beautiful, the rythm of the pattern weaves up really quickly and is very enjoyable. I got in the zone and was throwing that shuttle - the project was done so soon that I was sad not to have more to weave. Very inspiring. Thanks for a great weave!!!
