Brioche rib worked in two colors is amazing. Even though you work one-row stripes, you get vertical ribs of color in a squishy, cozy, reversible fabric. And when worked in the round, it’s a simple two-round pattern. Learn all the basics in this class by starting a pair of wristers: working brioche slip stitches both on knit rounds and on purl rounds; casting on and binding off effectively; keeping your yarns from tangling; and fixing mistakes.
