Description
In this workshop, tutor Judith Schur introduces you to brioche knitting in one colour and two colours. Signed copies of Judith’s book, Brioche, will be available in class. Brioche knitting creates an amazing, textured, reversible fabric which is absolutely ideal for scarves, cowls, shawls etc. Introducing a second colour adds another dimension to the work and interesting effects can be created simply by choosing the colours with careful thought or by switching between brioche knit and brioche purl stitch. In this class you will learn: Brioche knit Brioche purl Brioche knit in two colours Brioche purl in two colours Level: you will need to be an adventurous or a confident & experienced knitter to tackle this technique, but it is well worth the effort when you see the gorgeous results that can be achieved.
