Brioche stitch and intarsia colourwork are best friends.

In fact, intarsia is easier with two-colour brioche than it is with stocking stitch or garter stitch! In this class Xandy Peters shows you how to bring the two together for bold, colour-blocked brioche fabric.

You’ll start by reviewing two-colour brioche stitch, then cast on a flat swatch. Using a combination of shaping and intarsia, you’ll knit a wavy colour-blocked swatch. In the second half of the class Xandy shows you how to modify your swatch, how to work it in the round, and how to add intarsia elements to existing brioche patterns.

In this class you’ll learn…

  • How to combine two-colour brioche with intarsia colourwork
  • How to use shaping to create wavy blocks of colour
  • How to modify your swatch and work colour-blocked brioche in the round
  • How to add intarsia elements to brioche patterns you already have
Skills Needed

Advanced – you must already be comfortable knitting two-colour brioche stitch. This is not an introduction to brioche.
