Embellished Brioche: Two-Color Brioche Plus Assigned Pooling

Michele Lee Bernstein

Friday PM

Brioche and assigned pooling: Mash up these two fabulous techniques! We’ll discuss how to make these two techniques shine together, taking into consideration color contrast, tonal contrast, syncopated stitches, and the overall structure of brioche. We’ll play with several assigned pooling stitches on a brioche background, knitting flat.

Skill Level: Must be able to Knit/purl, cast on/bind off, know how to work 2 color brioche rib. This is not a beginning brioche class.
