Prerequisite:

Must be comfortable with Brioche Knit and Brioche Purl stitches and have completed one or two brioche projects. Should also understand and be able to follow a basic brioche pattern.

Description:

Are you an innovative thinker and wonder how to express that in your brioche knitting? Brioche is a fun stitch to let run wild. If you can track increases and decreases, you can make your brioche meander wherever it wants to, or where you want it to go. However, there are some things to consider when you step out of the world of patterns and let the knitting talk to you as you work your piece. This class is not for you if you like all of your stitches and patterns to be symmetrical, or you like to do math and charts for your knitting.

This is for those that want to venture off the grid and explore what happens when you make decisions as you knit, rather than working from a pre-planned structured concept. With some tips, tricks, a bit of magic and guidance, you CAN create a one-of-a-kind brioche design for yourself. I’ll bring the magic and you bring the willingness to “Play & Listen to your project” and together we will discover the maze of Brioche Wonder.

Prerequisite: Build Your Knitting Skills 2

Description:

In this Build Your Knitting Skills session, we will explore in further depth the language of knitting patterns and abbreviations and how to read them, as well as the importance of reading through patterns and checking for mistakes before you start knitting.

Next you will work a sample swatch with different cable patterns in it, finally learning the secret the more experienced knitters know about cables. The swatch pattern is provided in both written and charted formats, so this is another opportunity to practice working from written patterns and maybe a first chance to work from a chart.

Then you will compare the properties of cables with several other stitch patterns, and see how their differences can affect a larger project. Next, you will learn how to pick up and knit stitches along the edge of your cable swatch.

In the final step, you will explore different ways to block your work, because eventually you will want to try your hand at blocking something wonderful you have knitted.

To practice what you’ve learned, we will send you home with a pattern for a cute and cozy hat with a cabled brim.

Prerequisite: Must be comfortable with Brioche Knit and Brioche Purl stitches and have completed one or two brioche projects. Should also understand and be able to follow a basic brioche pattern.

Description:

Are you an innovative thinker and wonder how to express that in your brioche knitting? Brioche is a fun stitch to let run wild. If you can track increases and decreases, you can make your brioche meander wherever it wants to, or where you want it to go. However, there are some things to consider when you step out of the world of patterns and let the knitting talk to you as you work your piece. This class is not for you if you like all of your stitches and patterns to be symmetrical, or you like to do math and charts for your knitting.

This is for those that want to venture off the grid and explore what happens when you make decisions as you knit, rather than working from a pre-planned structured concept. With some tips, tricks, a bit of magic and guidance, you CAN create a one-of-a-kind brioche design for yourself. I’ll bring the magic and you bring the willingness to “Play & Listen to your project” and together we will discover the maze of Brioche Wonder.
