TECHNIQUES
If you’ve ever heard about brioche from other knitters, you might be feeling intimidated and as if it’s too difficult for you. Or maybe you’ve tried it before, and the pattern you used made you more confused than when you started. I feel you, because I’ve been there too! But, I’m convinced that with the right support, you can absolutely knit brioche… and love it.

The techniques used for this brioche scarf include brk, brp, k, and sl1yo. The tutorials for all of these stitches are linked in the pattern, as well as a one color brioche tutorial and a two color brioche worked-flat tutorial!

Note: if you are especially wanting to work 2-color brioche and you’re feeling a bit scared, you may want to start with 2-color brioche in the round, such as with the Any Yarn Brioche Cowl

All of my patterns include clear, step-by-step instructions and linked video technique tutorials that walk you through the pattern with confidence. I am also available for pattern support if you have questions.

From the Test Knitters

“This is an amazing formula pattern. It’s great for those of us with plenty of experience that just don’t want to do the math ourselves. You could even change up the stitch pattern without too much difficulty.” -Elfinfaerie

“Aha experience! is what I would say for this project. I am a crocheter turned knitter having knitted only a few projects.Flexibility to use any weight yarn, accomodating different cast on and bind off methods and clearly explained brioche basics with a video support for each one, what more could I have asked for. Loved to work on this project “

“My daughter loves her scarf …& I loved knitting it for her! Jessica provided clear instructions, as well as alternate finishing options to customize the project based on the knitter’s experience level.” - tanya

“The way you choose to communicate and explain, makes you stand tall above the other designers I have pattern tested for. It was wonderful experience for me.”
