Brioche knitting creates a squishy, reversible fabric with a distinct pattern - one color dominant on one side the other color dominant on the reverse. In this class we’ll cover the basics of brioche in the round, as well as decreases, using the Harlow Worsted hat pattern by Andrea Mowry. Students should be able to knit, purl, yarn over, and work in the round.
