Neglected to check errata (see below) before casting on - there is a major mistake in the fourth row of the pattern, aargh. Initial, errata-induced crankies aside, this is an adorable, quick li’l knit. And this yarn - gifted by a friend - is the yummiest ever.

Made the balls extra-large, because that’s how I do.

Errata:
Row 4 should read: K1, * sl2 pwise, K2tog, pass 2 slipped sts over, k, p, k, p into next stitch; rep from * to last st, k1. Row 8: K1, * k, p, k, p into next stitch, sl2 pwise, k2tog, pass2 slipped sts over; rep from * to last st, k1.

The bolded portion is a single action (i.e., knit-purl-knit-purl into one stitch).
