Do I just cast on like usual? in multiples of 3?

[surlykitchen]

@longtailedmonkey yep, cast on as you normally would. i have a video on my channel on how i cast on if you are interested. you can either cast on a multiple of 3, an even number, or both. i'm knitting a brioche scarf for my husband and since he wants it wide, i cast on 48. i think in the video i cast on 12.

[surlykitchen]

@shimmadimples a multiple of 3

Wow, thank you so much for this video on how to start. Even the Brioche book I have did not make it as clear as you have.

@Ruthie777able so glad the video helped. i'm a visual learner and i find myself discouraged when trying new patterns based on a written pattern.

You did good! Not to worry about how fast ... someone learning needs slow and deliberate.

Thank you!! Now I know how to do the brioche stitch.

@surlykitchen Now THERE's a Freudian slip if I ever saw one. *year forward = yarn forward.
