Default Typo?

Can someone tell me if this is a typo in this description of how many patterns are in this book? 125 Snowman and Santa patterns?

I just clicked on the site you put up and it does say 125 snowmen and Santa patterns but if you read down it says it gives instructions for a Santa and a snowman and then has 13 other patterns so I assume it has a total of 15 patterns.

Ok.. yes that I did read that and thought it had to be one or the other. Thanks for verifying this for me. I appreciate it. Marcia.

I have the book--there are 15 different carvings. There are 49 drawings total (i. e. front, side, rear views). Nice book--enough variety to start with and plenty of room for creativity. This book is on my shelf for that day when I have plenty of time and wood and nothing to do. Ha ha!
