Moonrise Brioche Shawl

 

Teacher: Theressa Silver

Brioche and garter stitch combine in this shawl to create vertical

and horizontal stripes. This is a great project for playing with color

and texture. The sample shawl was knit with a speckle gradient

yarn combined with a semi-solid. Theressa will take you through the

set up and shaping for a crescent shawl and teach the basic brioche

stitches. By the time you leave class you will have worked several

repeats of the pattern and be ready to finish the shawl at home.

Skill Level: Students must be comfortable knitting and purling, and

of fingering weight yarn, US size 5 40 inch circular needle.
