Beginner Bulky Brioche Fiber Friday with Lesley Anne Robinson via ZOOM!
Brioche is meant to be a fun and engaging stitch pattern!!! I want to take away all the fear and uncertainty surrounding brioche knitting. Grab some bulky yarn and circular needles to knit my super popular Funfetti hat pattern!
Two-color brioche is very fun, and can be easier to see the anatomy of brioche stitches, so we will be
focusing on this during the class. Yarn choices and color will be briefly discussed. You will learn my favorite cast-on
and bind-off techniques to use with brioche knitting, the basic brioche setup, and work on something you can continue at
home to keep practicing!
Homework: Purchase Funfetti pattern before class, on Ravelry or knitgraffiti.com (also offered for free). Cast on stitches for desired size and work the ribbing for brim.
Supplies:
» Funfetti hat pattern (available for free)
» 2 balls of Super Bulky yarn in high contrasting colors. See pattern for more material info.
» 16” / 40.5 cm long US 10 / 6 mm circular needles or DPN’s, whatever you prefer using for working in the round

Instructor Bio: | I am Lesley Anne Robinson, the knitting pattern designer behind Knit Graffiti Designs. I love to create knitting patterns that focus on modern style with a flair for something different. After graduating from the College for Creative Studies (located in Detroit, Michigan) with a degree in Interior Design and a minor in Fiber Design in 2006, I moved to New York City! I spent several years there working as a commercial Interior Designer for Spin Design. I started knitting in college, but in 2015 I began self-publishing my own knitting designs, and I love everything about this incredible community! Brioche knitting is my passion. I fell in love with the technique and just haven?t gotten sick of it yet. I love to teach others how to knit those beautiful brioche stitches, and spend my days swatching out new brioche stitch patterns. |
