2 Color Brioche Knitting Stitch Flat

[@adityajoshi3461]

Finally I can knit this stitch after approximately 50 failed attempts. Thanks for this video. Keep sharing your knowledge. Thanks a lot.

[@SuzanneBryan]

Very cool. Thank you.

[@tammymarks9165]

Thank you so much for taking the time to teach 2 color brioche in continental. I watched other videos and thought I "got it" only to find after a few rows I would have to frog it and start over. You videos are great! They are well paced and explained in detail. Thank you!!!

[@SuzanneBryan]

Thank you Tammy Marks! Happy knitting.

[@mayruthhenzerling1648]

I appreciate it that you are showing the English method. Thank you for taking the time to show how the Brioche stitching is done! I get confused to doing it the Continental way. The English method has become my way of knitting as I've been knitting this way for a long time but haven't done a lot of peojects. I have tried the Continental stiitcing and found my right hand gets stiff and starts to ache. Thank you again for this tutorial.

[@SuzanneBryan]

You’re welcome 😊

[@judgingoliveu6567]

Many thanks, Suzanne -- I can knit brioche now! Your instructions are clear and easy to follow, and I look forward to learning even more from your other videos.

[@SuzanneBryan]

Thank you Bonnie. Happy knitting.

[@SuzanneBryan]

You can use just about any cast on method that you choose depending on the effect you want. I have several methods that I use. I have a playlist of videos for Brioche at goo.gl/pslD6j . There are several on casting on for Brioche in that playlist.

[@asreymeas5786]

please can you show from the beginning ?

[@SuzanneBryan]

What is it that you are making? It depends on what you are making, how you start. Let me know and I can help you better.

[@nadsp2665]

Just frogged four rows of a shawl because I couldn't get the hang of the brp, wishing I had found this earlier! You saved my shawls life! 💖

[@SuzanneBryan]

+Natalie Preston That's wonderful. Thanks for watching.

[@KittyFace83]

This is the most helpful helpful video for this stitch hands down! Now if I could only get the hang of brp-ing with yarn in my left hand. Thanks!

[@SuzanneBryan]

A little late, but thank you.

[@kristyedgerton]

Great video, I really enjoy how you do continental and throw, and also that you say the stitches as you do them, that is incredible teaching ability. Thank you for sharing your talent! If you ever need graphic design work, let me know and love to help you out since you shared with me and everyone else who found this video helpful!

[@SuzanneBryan]

+Kristy Egerton thank you for watching and the lovely comments. I may need graphic design work and will contact you after the holidays. If you don't hear from me, give me a nudge. Thanks so much.

[@ibyodabert]

This is perfect! I have been looking for this stitch for a sweater forever. Thank you, thank you!!

[@SuzanneBryan]

You are welcome! Happy Knitting!

[@mimihealy5046]

Wow. This takes concentration. If I was tired, I'd purl the yo stitch as a matter of habit.

[@SuzanneBryan]

😊 Hi Mimi! I think you will find that after a bit of practice it will become second nature.

[@Zentropy8]

Thank you! This is so clear and easy to see. I really appreciate it.

[@SuzanneBryan]

+Zentropy8 you are welcome. Thanks for watching.

[@gatheringacorns4980]

Thank you!! This is super helpful! I especially love that you demonstrated throwing.

[@SuzanneBryan]

You are very welcome Gathering Acorns! Happy knitting.

[@cristinataylor5032]

This is the best video tutorial for brioche. Thanks you, Suzanne Merry Christmas 2015!

[@SuzanneBryan]

+Cristina Taylor than you! Merry Christmas to you too!

[@happychinami]

I can knit this stitch finally! I failed more than 30 times with another tutorial videos. Thank you so much! I want to make a long cowl next for my son. I want him to use it as a double layered cowl. Can you teach us how to graft the brioche stitch and make it into a cowl please? I watched the other video, but the stitches were even number. I love your tutorial. It's so easy to understand. Thank you!

[@SuzanneBryan]

I love your suggestion. This will be my very next video. I will work on it over the weekend. Thank you!

[@happychinami]

@@SuzanneBryan I also appreciate you show it with Continental knitting (I am a combination knitter(^^♪). Thank you again!!!

[@lynnbaruh4014]

finally understood, and was able to recreate a swatch in two color brioche. Did the one color and two color set up row before this.

[@SuzanneBryan]

Fabulous. Happy knitting.

[@ears9506]

Love to see you make a video on swapping the colors so I get horizontal strips ( swapping the light side color and dark side color) I have tried this swapping and it is beautiful. However, my swaps are sloppy and I am finding it hard to take the time to play with it. Hoping you have already done the work and can just show me. Love you videos

[@SuzanneBryan]

Hmm, I am not seeing what you mean, but I will try it out. Thanks for the suggestions.

[@joanadarc1204]

Achei muito lindo esse ponto obrigada por compartilhar seu trabalho gratidão ❤❤

[@itavamp0609]

thank you for including both continental and english style. very helpful!

[@SuzanneBryan]

Thank you for watching. Happy knitting.

[@sunshinemelanina1046]

Thank you for your time and this explicitly video.

[@SuzanneBryan]

Thank you! Happy knitting.

[@TheDonnachang]

It would be helpful if this showed the set up row.

[@SuzanneBryan]

+TheDonnachang I have just recently created three new videos on the set up rows. You can find them in my Brioche Stitch Playlist at kzbin.info/aero/PLLKJ9GuhEEwmWxUv-bPJi64wQfLWeeVP4

[@lhannis1]

This is wonderful, thank you. This makes a ton of sense.

[@SuzanneBryan]

Thank you for watching!

[@daphnegermainribble5578]

Thank you. Simple when you think about it.🙂

[@SuzanneBryan]

😀

[@redredwine1277]

Please please, why is it, I can't find Brioche stitches in round, two colors. Please explain both end of the yarn where to place them., front or back after passes. Thank you again, Suzanne🌹

[@SuzanneBryan]

On my list, coming up really soon. Thank you.

[@BJ051996]

I love that stitch, question "how would I cast on"?

[@SuzanneBryan]

+T GASKINS I have quite a few videos showing different ways to cast on for brioche knitting - kzbin.info/aero/PLLKJ9GuhEEwmWxUv-bPJi64wQfLWeeVP4

[@30endlesslove]

we were all a beginner. by looking at this with practise you will know how many stitches you will need to cast on.and even know the yarn size and needle size.....

[@nicolearluna9767]

[@SuzanneBryan]

[@nancysteiner8814]

Great video! Thank you!

[@SuzanneBryan]

You are welcome!

[@ireeeeen]

I want to buy wool for this so hope you can answer my question soon? If normally I would use 10 balls for a blanket do I need double the amount of wool for this pattern? Or do the many slip stitches make me need 2 x 5 balls? (2 colors) please answer soon? want to start making baby blanket.

[@SuzanneBryan]

I would get twice as much.

[@SuzanneBryan]

My video for Brioche in one color can be found at Brioche Stitch in One Color

[@SuzanneBryan]

😀

[@agarygirl]

Can you do a video on how to fix mistakes in double brioche knitting?

[@SuzanneBryan]

+agarygirl I will work on it. It is not too hard, once you figure out a system. Check back later this week.

[@midwestkatie4]

Are Brioche stitch and Fisherman’s Rib the same?

[@SuzanneBryan]

Yes! And one stitch below. They are just worked a little differently, but the end results are exactly the same.

[@ks9066]

Thank you for clarifying. The fabric does look the same to me.

[@dukeofpurl]

I was always getting fouled up when trying to do 2-color brioche. NOT no more!! lol Thanks...

[@SuzanneBryan]

I do miss hearing from you. Hoping all is well.

[@sukritinarayan7763]

Can we make a full seater of this design will it be more lengthy

[@SuzanneBryan]

You can make many things from this. A whole sweater, yes. In fact I am starting one very soon. Happy New Year and Happy Knitting!

[@sukritinarayan7763]

Knitting with Suzanne Bryan thx

[@sukritinarayan7763]

Knitting with Suzanne Bryan n to u too

[@GiuliaKingsley454]

I already know how to do the pattern but doing two colours is confusing this seems to hel my how do you start it off? With the two colours

[@SuzanneBryan]

+Kikyo Akiyama I have a whole playlist on Brioche - kzbin.info/aero/PLLKJ9GuhEEwmWxUv-bPJi64wQfLWeeVP4 There are several videos on how to start with two colors in a variety of Cast On methods. Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@GiuliaKingsley454]

ive been watching them and it takes time for me I keep messing up but ill get there

[@SuzanneBryan]

+Kikyo Akiyama great.n it can be difficult at first.

[@GiuliaKingsley454]

Suzanne Bryan yeah

[@SuzanneBryan]

+Kikyo Akiyama The beginning depends on the edge you want and the purpose of the project. For example if you need a firm CO, you can use the standard Long Tail CO and just use the two colors( assuming you are doing color work). Have the Main color be over the thumb and the contrast color over the finger. that is the easiest way to start. You can try it with the contrast over the thumb and the main over the finger for the CO too and see which works best for your particular project. On the other hand, if it is an edge of a shawl or scarf, and the edge can be very fine, then the Italian CO will look best. It is the most difficult to master, maybe of all COs. But, once you get it, it makes a wonderful starting point (although very fiddly) for Brioche, as well as Double Knitting. It took me quite awhile to master the Italian CO. I do have a video of that as well, in the my Brioche play list.

[@cristyandrade1850]

Can I see how to begin the brioche stich in two colors?

[@SuzanneBryan]

+Cristy Andrade I have several KZbin videos on starting Brioche in two colors. You can find them in my playlist on Brioche - kzbin.info/aero/PLLKJ9GuhEEwmWxUv-bPJi64wQfLWeeVP4

[@MicheleBloodphd]

Very helpful. Thank you!

[@SuzanneBryan]

Thank you!

[@daphnegermainribble5578]

I am puzzled how you know when to knit and when to purl thr Brk. And also when to start and end with slip st or knit st. Otherwise your videos are great and you go slow enough for us to catch on. Thank you !

[@SuzanneBryan]

When you see the yarnover over a stitch, you work that this as it is. If it is a purl, you purl it, if it is a knit, you knit it. You just need to look at the stitches on the left needle as they are coming up. If the next stitch does not have a yarnover associated with it, then you slip it and make the yarnover at the same time. It is a rythym and you will find it as you practice.

[@equitime77]

Knitting with Suzanne Bryan but how do you see if it's a knit our purl? I get the slip stitch bit

Can I see how to begin the Brioche in two colors??

[@SuzanneBryan]

Have you found your answer? A little late, but thank you.

[@reneegoldberg6268]

How many stitches do you cast on ?

[@SuzanneBryan]

It depends on what you are making. Usually in pairs, but I like to have the edges match, so I add one extra at the end.

[@30endlesslove]

by the way this is a really good tutorial

[@SuzanneBryan]

Thank you.

can you please start this from the beginning?

[@SuzanneBryan]

+Akshay Bhardwaj, thanks for watching and commenting. I have several other videos about Brioche stitch. If you click on the card links that are currently up in the right hand corner, there are links to a video for casting on and a video for working the set up row. The set up row video is - kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYbCZp6hptajnqc. Please let me know if this helps you.

[@nanno8483]

very informative thank you

[@SuzanneBryan]

Thank you! Please share my videos with your social media groups. That helps me the most. Happy knitting.

[@tinselfairy3696]

can someone direct me to a link where this pattern starts off from cast on? thanks :)

[@SuzanneBryan]

+Tinsel Fairy I have just compiled several of my videos into a playlist on Brioche. You will find the CO, and set up rows fro one color and two color Brioche - kzbin.info/aero/PLLKJ9GuhEEwmWxUv-bPJi64wQfLWeeVP4. Happy Knitting.

[@tinselfairy3696]

thank you so much!

[@SuzanneBryan]

Tinsel Fairy You are welcome. Thanks for watching.

[@sadheart24]

Are you using an odd or even number of stitches? Do you have a written pattern? How do I know when to knit the first and last stitch and when to purl it? That part confuses me.

[@SuzanneBryan]

You can use an odd or even. If you use an even, you would start with a knit at the beginning of every row. If you use an odd, there will be a RS and a WS, on RS rows start and end with a knit, on the WS rows start and end with a purl.

[@sadheart24]

@@SuzanneBryan thanks. I’ll practice a bit.

[@TheDonnag1945]

how do you cast them on?

[@SuzanneBryan]

+Donna Getchell I have a Brioche Knitting playlist that shows how to cast on in several different methods, how to work the set up rows, working the Brioche and binding off. You can see it at - kzbin.info/aero/PLLKJ9GuhEEwmWxUv-bPJi64wQfLWeeVP4

[@vivianlaw13]

Hi Suzanne I like this pattern but I only want to use one colour, do I use the same method with the same colour yarn twice or is there a different method if I'm using only one colour? Thank you!

[@SuzanneBryan]

Great question. It is different. Here are two videos to help. The first is on setting up one color brioche and the second is on working one color brioche. Let me know if these help you please. Happy knitting. kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5WTm5WOrcuDd6M kzbin.info/www/bejne/jILcd42DnqaikJo

Please redo and show how you cast on

[@SuzanneBryan]

At the end of this video, is the link to the video on how to cast on

[@MethCrystal666]

I hate this stitch SO MUCH. I've tried to learn it so many times. I thought this video was going to be the one, but I SWEAR I did what it said, and 8 rows later it's just a horrible snarled up mess. The stitches looked right on the needle at all times, but the fabric... :(

[@SuzanneBryan]

I am so sorry, can you send me a picture of your work? Maybe I can help you.

[@SuzanneBryan]

You may need to work more than 8 rows. Brioche is notorious for looking messy in the first few rows. It takes a while to establish itself.

[@30endlesslove]

this is so confusing for beginners. I advise to practise with lots of scarves first.Understand knitting.learn the yarn. quality.quantity. the needle sizes.cast on number of stitches. look at your work as you knit. research on knitting techniques...try new patterns...practise practise practise then this will be a breeze...

[@SuzanneBryan]

Perfect recommendations. I would like to meet you in person. I think we would like each other.

[@KillerEpicBunneh]

Video is ever so slightly out of focus - very distracting.
