On page 5, Left Front, Next Row (WS) below Begin Pattern, an extraneous "knit 1" instruction has been removed from the end of the line. The line now ends with "... work next Row of Chart B across next 3 stitches, knit 1, slip marker, work next row of Chart F to last stitch, purl 1 (selvedge stitch)."

On page 7, Right Front, top righthand column, the Bust Increase Row (RS) has been updated to read, "Work as established to last 2 stitches, YO, knit 2. (1 stitch increased)".
