I’ve had quite a few questions about working 2 color brioche stitch since I released the Letterman pattern. It seems that while some are interested in seeing just how it works, others are certain it is too hard. I’m posting the how-to video I provided for my test knitters so you can see just how easy this stitch really is. This is one of those “If I can do it, so can you” things that looks way harder than it is.

Working 2 color brioche stitch back and forth is a four row process. I’ve broken the videos into rows 1-2 and 3-4. This was a quickie first time how-to so try and ignore the kids, the dog, the gardener, the cheapo testing yarn, and the Texas accent (if you can help it).

ROWS 1-2

ROWS 3-4

So if you’ve been stumped by brioche, I hope this helps you sort things out. In the meantime my sweet golden boy and I hope you have a lovely Thanksgiving spent with family or friends, turkey, pumpkin pie and a little knitting for good measure!
