October 15, 2017

I really loved the patter when it came out, so organic.
So today I decided to cast on.
I have to say, this is NOT a beginner Brioche! If took me several attempts to get it going,
I met my challenge. You are essentially working with right and wrong brioche sides, side by side, which took my brain some time getting used to ;)

OK, so after making a solid start and getting used to the structure of the pattern, I am off and running. I am really enjoying how it’s growing and coming together.

Love those two colors together.

Finished today! Shawl is blocked and drying on the blocking mat.
I din’t finish as per pattern instructions, as I wanted to use up as much of my two skeins of yarn as I could.
I completed a full leaf pattern instead and bound off on the reverse row with a picot edge.

When making this pattern it’s important to pay close attention, as not to forget the increases on the left side of the design.
