Have there been any corrections for this pattern?  I am finding shaping the top left bodice/neck area confusing.  The last 4 rows.  Other than that area, I have found making the bodice wonderful.

I have also found the pattern a bit confusing.  The bodice has been fairly easy but once you get to the left top I honestly don't know wher e to continue the pattern.  If anyone has figured this out, please post.  Thank you.

I too am on the left top bodice and came here for directions. I am on the neck ribbing. It is completely confusing. It appears as though I should crochet the ribbing around the shoulder and back of neck to the other side, but it does not say how or where to join the shoulder seams. Any word on further corrections?

How hard would you say this pattern is? This would be the 1st crochet top I have ever made though I have been crocheting a while. I am hesitant to start.

I did find small errors in the pattern. I did the sweater in 32" and 42". In the 32" there were number of stiches errors and in the 42" I found a row missing and number of stiches errors. I read and read until I figured out what to do. In the end it turned out great.
