Introduction to Two-Colour Brioche Knitting Workshop at Bakewell Wool Gathering, 19 Oct 2024

October 19, 2024 @ 1:30 pm - 3:30 pm

I am delighted to be offering this workshop at Bakewell Wool Gathering on Saturday October 19th 2024.

Workshop tickets are £30 per person. Please ensure you also have a ticket for Bakewell Wool Gathering (you can pay on the door from 12 noon, pre-paid tickets can enter the show from 10am).

Learn this amazing knitting technique to create a wonderfully squishy fabric. We’ll cover the basics of the two colour brioche stitch and the terminology. We’ll also explore a brioche increase and two simple decreases to create geometric shapes in your brioche swatch.

You need to be able to cast on, knit and purl confidently and be able to follow a written pattern.

Yarn and handouts are included.

Bring 5mm circular needles (60-80cm). Circular needles are essential for two-colour brioche knitting, even when knitting flat.
