One of the biggest challenges in brioche knitting is knowing what to do when things go wrong — and in this class, you’ll learn just that. We’ll take a deep dive into the structure of brioche fabric so you can better understand what’s happening on your needles and gain the confidence to fix common issues when they arise.
You’ll learn how to identify and correct typical mistakes such as dropped stitches, and missed yarnovers. We’ll cover when and how to “tink” or “frog” in brioche, and you’ll practice choosing the best approach for different situations. With hands-on practice and supportive instruction, you’ll leave class feeling more comfortable with brioche fabric and more confident in your ability to tackle even complex brioche patterns.
