Thank you! I will try to ignore them and see if they magically go away- I sure hope so- it's such a cool technique I can't wait to get more than a row into it without picking it all apart again!
For example: when you bring both to the front to purl, do your purl stitch with the black stitch the white must travel over the new stitch to go to the back. Now do a knit stitch with a white one, bring both to the front, turn your work over and look at it, you will have the same thing happening.
I dont think your doing anything wrong. Both yarns travel in the middle of your double knitting so when you do both knits and purls..the opposite color will have to travel over the purl side of either.
I have tried to do just what you do- but I end up with bars of the opposite color crossing my stitches. For example, if I'm working in black and white, and I bring both to the front and purl a black stitch, in order to get both yarns to the back for a knit stitch, the white crosses over the new black stitch, leaving a visible bar. How do I avoid this? I get it right by accident once in a while, but can't figure out what I did differently! I have started the same piece more than 15 times now
Nature provided you with an awesome soundtrack! What animals were you near? lol Seriously, I could have fallen asleep listening to the background noise it was so relaxing!
This is the best two color brioche how-to video I've seen. Love the chickens, btw.

Again, If you need me too, I can make a video explaining it for you.

Remember you are working 2 pieces at the same time, as long as the bars are on the purl side of the stitch, you should be fine!!
Try to do 10 rows and ignore the bars, they should magically go away!
Please come back and let me know if this helps!!
If not, I can do a little video if that helps.
