Notes

The syncopated brioche color rows remind me of paint chip cards! The construction has a cool built in time saver, the ends of each color pop are left long to create the fringe. (No ends to weave in!)
It was my first knit with the Genmou yarn, and I’m definitely going to use it again. Though it looks crimped unwound, it knits up quite smooth, yet retains a nice grip to keep my brioche yarn overs from falling off my needles.
