Knitting Help - Brioche Stitch

The Brioche Stitch is a combination of stitches that makes a nice, thick, double-sided fabric. In this video we cover both the simple Brioche Stitch, and the two-color Brioche Stitch. Written instructions for this stitch are available for free on my website here:

can you do the first 3-5 rows of the brioche stitch? I'm a beginner and I keep getting lost after the first row.

@xbbythi In the video, I demonstrate Rows 1 and 2. The rest of the rows are just those two rows repeated over and over. Hope that helps.

[verypinkknits]

@sstitanlady Yes, that is what the pattern says, that's correct.

verypinkknits how do u start it off is it the same as when u are doing it like on ur video? My sister wants 2 kno

[verypinkknits]

@TineeTerror To start the brioche stitch, I used the long tail cast on. YouTube won't let me give you a direct link here in the comments, but you can see my video by searching for "Knitting Help - Long-Tail Cast-On" on my channel page.

For the set up row do I cast it on as if to double knit? or do i just Longtail double stranded?

Hi Staci I love your videos. They are so helpful and your patterns are great as well. I was wondering if you would consider making a video on doing brioche in the round? I cannot seem to find any helpful videos on here and written patterns confuse me as well.

when you're doing the knit two together, it only looks like you're knitting one. Curse my failing vision, but could you do a segment with a closeup? or is there one online you can link me to?

I absolutely live this pattern! So easy and te result is very cushy and warm. I was wondering whether you know how to do this using magic loop? If not that could be your next video! :)
