Brioche knitting uses a simple and clever technique to create beautiful fabrics – deep ribs and fascinating colourwork. It’s particularly effectively in two colours, and is an excellent way to tame a busy variegated yarn. This class covers the skills for working brioche patterns, including reading the sometimes-complicated instructions, and fixing mistakes. Knitters will leave with a one-of-a-kind shawl or scarf project well underway. Skill Level: Intermediate: no specific skills required, but knitters must be confident with increasing and decreasing. Materials Required: A 16-20" (40-50cm) circular 4mm/US #6 needle and 2 strongly contrasting colours of scrap worsted weight yarn; 250-300 yards of each: recommend one variegated, one solid colour. Newer knitters should bring DK or worsted; more experienced knitters can bring fingering or sport but if you do so, please adjust your needle size accordingly. Teacher: Kate Atherley All classes take place at 6pm in our Kensington Market shop. Please arrive a few minutes early. Once we have received your order, we will send you an email to confirm and to go over a bit more information. Please note that these classes are geared towards adults as children tend to learn at a much different speed. If you have a young friend under the age of 16 who would like to learn, please reach out to us directly to make arrangements. We are a scent-free space. Cancelation Policy: If you need to miss the class, please give us as much notice as you can. We do not offer refunds for missed classes, but if you give us more than 24 hours notice, we will transfer your registration fee to another class or to store credit.
