Fig. 4 does NOT coordinate with the directions and it doesn't specifiy to dec EACH side for Size 40 like it does in the other sizes! Fig. 4 shows EVEN decreases for the ch2!

I've been admiring this pattern ever since it showed up. I downloaded it and look at it every so often. I'll really getto making it at some point. But thank you very much for makingit available. The one piece of advice I've gotten from this site that I think pertains to this pattern is "read through the pattern first before starting" It'll save on the frustration. I think all the designers are very good at editing their patterns before posting.
