Brioche Knitting Basics

Spacer 25x25 pixels

Brioche knitting, an unusual variation on standard knitting, creates a double-sided fabric that expands the possibilities of knitting structure, intricate textures, reversible fabrics, and even unique color combinations.

 

With Mercedes Tarasovich-Clark as your guide, you’ll learn:

  • How to get started with step-by-step instructions for mastering the brioche knit and the brioche purl, creating two enmeshed sides of brioche fabric.
  • One- and two-color brioche techniques for thick, lofty fabric that can easily be manipulated to create distinctive vertical striped colorwork.
  • Knitting techniques on how to shape your brioche projects, fix (and avoid) making mistakes, and tips on choosing colors and yarns to best show off your stitches.

Plus, Brioche Knitting Basics with Mercedes Tarasovich-Clark includes a free pattern download of the Two-Color Brioche Hat to practice your skills.

 

While not a quick-and-easy technique, brioche knitting offers creative possibilities that make its challenges rewarding. You’ll find inspiration with the possibilities the brioche techniques can offer.

     

Brioche Knitting

 

Mercedes Tarasovich-Clark’s background in fiber arts began as a child, sewing and crafting, and grew into a pursuit of a degree in fiber arts from the Savannah College of Art and Design (BFA Fibers, 1999). Her freelance knitwear designs can be seen in publications such as Interweave Knits magazine & Lace Style, as well as work for major yarn companies and her own self-published patterns. She’s taught at retreats, guild workshops, and at classes at her own brick and mortar yarn shop, for the last ten years. As the hand-dyer behind Kitchen Sink Dyeworks, she uses texture and color every day, and is always exploring interesting techniques such as brioche knitting to use beautiful yarns in fun new ways.

I had a lot of trouble watching this video because I found the teaching style a little boring, but upon reflection I think it might be better viewed in short bursts a chapter at a time instead of just sitting down and watching it straight through. Some close ups would have been good, and maybe some friendly chat while watching endless rows of swatch knitting. Maybe thicker wool and bigger needles so stitches can been seen easier and maybe slowing down the knitting. Maybe less stiches in the swatches so we get to the end of the rows faster. Maybe some editing would have been good.
