Intrigued by brioche stitch projects but intimidated or confused by instructions? In this virtual workshop, you’ll learn one-color and two-color brioche stitch with the help of designer Ann Weaver.
After two hours of doing brioche, you will feel like a master and will be ready to take on more complex brioche projects if you like. The workshop includes a detailed photo tutorial on working brioche stitch and suggestions for avoiding and fixing mistakes in brioche stitch. We also will discuss how colors interact in brioche stitch. The workshop is based on the Rothko Cowl pattern, which showcases the interactions among three colors in brioche stitch.
