The combination of hand-dyed yarns in two color brioche is, to me, spellbinding. I love looking at the contrast of the two colors as they play off each-other.

Spellbound is an infinity scarf that incorporates increases and decreases to create the wavy lines.

The scarf is knit flat, beginning with a provisional cast on, then grafted together with the Kitchener stitch.

This is an intermediate brioche project.

The (blue and multi) yarns are from 7th Floor Yarns. Photos by Xoli
