Brioche knitting creates a lofty, squishy, and reversible fabric. In this workshop you’ll learn to work basic brioche, along with increasing, decreasing, working with two colors, and finishing techniques. Demonstrations and a full-color tutorial handbook will guide you through your first brioche sampler with instructions for both Continental and British-style knitters (pickers and throwers). Technique Requirements: Knit/purl; cast on/bind off; increase/decrease; have knit a few accessories; basic finishing techniques
Homework:
None
Supplies for Class:
* 2 colors of light coloured, worsted weight yarn, about 50 yards each color * Needles appropriate for worsted weight yarn (probably a US 6, 7, or 8/4-5 mm) (A circular needle will be required in order to work 2-color brioche. Any length is fine, though a long cord may get in the way.)
