Brioche knitting

Brioche knitting is a technique that creates a soft, plush fabric with a ribbed, reversible texture. It involves slipping stitches and yarn overs in a specific pattern, which forms thick, stretchy fabric with prominent ridges. This method often incorporates two colors for an elegant, two-tone effect, but can also be done in a single color. The process results in a warm, pliable material similar to a thick, cozy bread—hence the name "brioche." It demands attention to detail and practice but produces a richly textured, reversible fabric ideal for scarves, hats, and sweaters.
