This pattern is all about the luxurious yarn, hand dyed in Alaska. I combined soft and squishy Brioche Stitch, also known as Fisherman’s Rib, with one skein of wool and one skein of wool- silk blend. The colors combine to remind me of the harbor in Cordova, where I bought these yarns at The Net Loft, one of my favorite yarn stores in the world.

This cowl, with my video tutorials, is a perfect introduction to knitting Brioche stitch in two colors in the round.
