11 January 2011: 

The written instructions for Round 48 (third page of pattern) should read as follows: ”Work as directed by chart until the end of round, remover marker, slip two stitches from L to R needle, replace marker. This indicates new beginning of round.” (The previous version only instructed for one stitch to be slipped on this round.)
