Brioche Skills 2

Type: Technique, Project

Length: 2 hours

Instructor: Staff

Class Fee: $30

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 β€œPlay & Listen to your project” and together we will discover the maze of Brioche Wonder.


Participants need to purchase or bring the following supplies when they come to class:

(Please arrive a few minutes early to purchase your materials.)
