Thank you so very much for this excellent video! I used this three years ago when I was first learning how to do brioche. It was the most helpful video that I watched. I am about to start a brioche project and my mind immediately went to you saying knit, purl, purl, knit. This time around watching it I picked up many more tips. I will watch it over and over again. Thank you so much for this short, VERY helpful video.
This video has saved my a$$ so many times over years at this point 😂 It is literally the only aid that makes brioche understandable, and even easier!, for me - even when I’ve screwed up and had to back-track. Thank you!!!!
Excellent Video!! You speak to how my fingers move and what my eyes should look for. Much better than trying to read written descriptions and still pictures. I think I’ve got this!! Thank you!
So, so brilliant. I've been knitting for more than 60 years and always wanted to try brioche stitch. Now mastered it, thanks to your brilliant tutorial and, most importantly, your tips for recognising which yarn and whether to knit or purl the row. Thank you very much.
Thank you so much for this video! Every video I've watched tells you a different way of doing this stitch and none that I watched explained the pattern, or color sequence. Now I get it! Finally after 2 days of non-productive videos and countless yarn rip outs! Thanks angin from a now happy knitter! 😊
Very good tutorial. Instructor is very clear and patient. She repeats enough times that you will get it. I would highly recommend this video for beginners of Brioche. Thank you.
I am almost 70 years old and never attempted this stitch because of the complexity of it, this video has made me want to try it. Very clear and easy to understand, brilliant video! Thank you for posting : D
As a continental knitter who purls like a Norwegian, I had some difficulty following your tutorial. So, I went to other tutorials and got even more confused! Well, I came back to your tutorial and after several views I think I finally got the hang of 2 color brioche. I was surprised that many other tutorials didn't start at the set up row; but the just demonstrated the technique mid-project. That's why I think your tutorial is the best!
I agree with others that this is by far the best video for brioche. I have watched several videos, and even watched an online course and I just could not get it straight. You made it very simple so it was easily comprehended, and now I do believe I have it. One thing you did that others have not done, is used larger needles and yarn than you might ordinarily use, so it was easy to see what you were doing.
Fantastic tutorial!!! I probably never would've caught on without the tips for reading my work!!! I'm brioche'n like a pro on only my second cast on!!!! Thank you!!!
Your instructions are the best. You are the only one who shows clearly the telltale signs of what comes next, so the initial confusion is gone. Nothing to memorize, when you leave your work and come back to it later, you always know how to tell where you are and what to do next. Thank you very very much!
Kudos to you! Thanks for the tips of what to look for at the end of rows. I don't know how many times I took them apart because it was so confusing especially for a beginner. I have finally able to knit at least 4 inches without making mistake.....thanks a lot!
You are a really good teacher, you totally get how to make something clear; I think often those who know something forget what it’s like for those who don’t, and take things for granted, rush on when it just isn’t clear to a beginner. Despite your absolutely excellent instructions I found myself having to recast-on about six times after making mistakes in the second or third rows and being hopelessly incapable of un-knitting…much easier to start again! And my learner woes are added to because I knit Portuguese style (totally recommended!!!), which entails an added level of complication in the learning process. But I’ve finally managed to keep going and keep on track. I think one of the hard things with this stitch is that ‘reading’ your work actually makes it worse when you are first learning, and the first few rows, as is often the case in many stitches, look completely wrong and awful until you’ve had the courage to struggle on for a few more. Then it all starts to make sense and look like it should and you feel this overwhelming sense of achievement!! Thank you so much for making clear what was a total fog to me when I watched other classes. I’m so glad to have found your videos.
Oh thank you so much! You are a Wonderful Teacher! Clear, calm, precise. It is so helpful when you told us what you were going to tell us, then you told us, then you told us what you had just told us! The repetition was very helpful to reinforce understanding. 👍. I am new to knitting and will be following your tutorials with gratitude. Thanks again. Krissy.
Thank you so very much. This attempt to get it right was successful and looks like two-color brioche, instead of a checker board jumble.. You were clear and thorough. Great tutorial!
OMG! You give the best instructions for this than anyone! I finally get it. You explain how to know where you’re at and what to do! A light bulb moment! Thank you so much!💕👍🏻
Thank you so much! Great tips especially for how to “read” the stitches and the rows so you know where you are and what you have to do next. Thank you! Thank you! I think this has allowed me to quit avoiding patterns that are brioche.
Wow. This explanation is sooo clear. I’ve taken two classes. (Ok I’m a slow learner) and was unable to understand what I was doing. I never got past about 2 series before all I had was tangled string. Thank you so much
Thank you so much for your step-by-step instructions. I have watched numerous videos on the 2-color Brioche stitch and no one explains it as clearly as you. I love that you explain how to read your work after you put it down. This is so helpful! Great job!
Simple, clear directions, repeated every row, very helpful! Thanks for not using berk/bark names as they just confuse at the beginning. I sharred this with a friend just learing 2-color, and she loved it too!
Girl🙌👏❤ I would of NEVER EVER thought I can do Brioche especially not two colors..I watched you last night and could not stop knitting..its so much fun..oh and I messed up all the way to three rows (didnt pay attention to my color lol)but had no problem froggin it back.Easy peasy . THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!❤🤗and the tip with on or two in the beginning (knit or purl)saved me ,big time but I also could see the knit or the purl.
You covered what most tutorials neglect: how to "read" your stitches! It's not enough to know the mechanics of a complicated stitch; you have to know how to troubleshoot, too! Thank you! I can't wait to try some of the fabulous brioche projects on Ravelry!
Hi from France! Thank-you so much for this tutorial. I learned the brioche stitch a few years ago but in a different way (row 1, knit all stitches, then it's a one row repeat : knit 1, knit the stitch below ,end each row by knitting the last 2 stitches). Then I watched your tutorial about the brioche stitch and now I can manage both ways.😊 Now, I'm gonna try the 2 color brioche stitch. Thank-you very much. You sound so enthusiastic and that helps a lot. 👍👍
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻✨🌟⭐️🌟✨❤️😃❤️👍🏻👍🏻🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 Thank you soooo much!!! I had given up on doing 2-color brioche because I kept losing my place - just too many interruptions in a hectic life. NOW I think I can do it because you have explained so well how to read the previous row! What questions to ask myself (do I see & which yarn to use & which stitches to knit or purl together) and easy short phrases to say in order to keep on track!
Wow, there has never been a stitch pattern to frustrate, confuse, almost defeat me but this one, like this one. THANK YOU!! for making it simple to understand. oh my gosh!! I agree, best tutorial for it ever!
I have knit a couple of sweaters in one color brioche and wanted to learn to knit two color. I watched many videos, but they were very confusing. Yours was so easy to grasp...Thank you so much for breaking it down for me. You are so awesome!!!!
Thank you so much!! Finally I manage to learn it… as an English style knitter, it’s always so hard to find good videos, you are a great teacher, congratulations!!
Thank you for your clear & simplified tutorial. I had put down a brioche scarf I started about a year ago and couldn’t for the life of me remember where I was in the 4 row pattern repeat or even what those row patterns were lol. Thanks again for helping me to get back on the rails.
Thank you for this video. Your video is the first video of 12 that I was able to successfully complete a brioche swatch. I’m you helped me to understand the basic whys and when’s of this stitch. THANK YOU :)
Thank you so much for this video! I’ve been knitting for 60 years, and became blind about 10 years ago. I still Nick, but learning the one color brioche stitch was rather difficult, lol. I have been trying to learn a two color brioche stitch for about a month, watching numerous videos and going to website after website trying to learn this beautiful sketch. You spoke to my wheelhouse! I watched your video, OK, I listen to your video, twice through without my needles in myg and then put the needles into the yarn and I have a two color brioche swatch of 20 stitches! Thank you so much it was wonderful to have an excellent verbal instruction that didn’t rely too much on visual cues. You’re awesome
Yes, you made that very clear! I appreciate how you gave the outline and then kept reinforcing where you were at each step. It looks crazy as you're doing it, but your explanation makes sense of the apparent chaos. Thank you.
I don't usually leave comments, but I really wanted to thank you for that video, you did an amazing job here. All the tips and explanations of the pattern are crystal clear. Thank you very much.
The clearest explanation ever. I’ve been trying to follow a pattern for this and was on the verge of giving up. I’m so glad I found this video. Thanks.
Great video. Just watched for the first time but after just one viewing I feel Like i will eventually be able to Brioche. Thank you so much for teaching at the beginner level!!!
Very nice tutorial. I think I now have the hang of a simple brioche in two colours. I love the pointers to orientate you in terms of where you are in the knit. 😊
Great instructions with all pertinent details. I have watched many videos, but yours is the ultimate. Thank you so very much for all the effort you put into this video. We understand and appreciate.
Great video - very well explained - I paused between steps to knit mine AND took notes to keep in front of me. I've not seen other tutorials mention how to tell what type of row it is which is SUPER important. Thank you so much!
Thank you! I'm just learning 2 colour brioche, and your explanation is definitely the clearest so far! I've been looking for the fundamental rules of brioche knitting, and you've stated them perfectly :) (1) the slipped stitch on its own is always in the colour you've just knitted, and (2) the first two stitches of each row tell you whether it's a knit or a purl row. Simples! Thank you again :)
So glad I found this video! Your helpful hints have made this stitch much less daunting. Your pace was slow enough that I could easily follow and the repetition was very helpful as well. I now feel I can procede with my brioche project more confidently! Thank you very much for making this video.
I can't believe it, I've actually knitted several inches and it's looking great! I have tried it so many times, it never came out right and I had just about given up. This is wonderful, thank you so much, awesome video!
I could give you a hug. I finally knitted brioche....so happy. Thank you so much ❤
most clear explanation, thank you
Thank you so very much for this excellent video! I used this three years ago when I was first learning how to do brioche. It was the most helpful video that I watched.

This was by FAR, the best explanation! Thank you!
I have tried learning brioche from videos for over three years now. Your's is the only one I learned from!
This video has saved my a$$ so many times over years at this point 😂 It is literally the only aid that makes brioche understandable, and even easier!, for me - even when I’ve screwed up and had to back-track. Thank you!!!!
Excellent Video!! You speak to how my fingers move and what my eyes should look for. Much better than trying to read written descriptions and still pictures. I think I’ve got this!! Thank you!
Thank goodness I found you. I've watched and frogged and watched and frogged. You nailed it with clarity and good repitition! Thank you so very much!
Not sure why people didn't like this video. It was very clear and explained the concept very well. Good work!
So, so brilliant. I've been knitting for more than 60 years and always wanted to try brioche stitch. Now mastered it, thanks to your brilliant tutorial and, most importantly, your tips for recognising which yarn and whether to knit or purl the row. Thank you very much.
Best two-color FLAT brioche tutorial! Thank you!
Omg! I totally get it! No one has ever explained brioche to me like you did! You are a brioche knitting angel 😇. Thank you so much!
The best tutorial explaining two colour brioche. Thanks so much
Thank you so much for this video! Every video I've watched tells you a different way of doing this stitch and none that I watched explained the pattern, or color sequence. Now I get it!

Very good tutorial. Instructor is very clear and patient. She repeats enough times that you will get it. I would highly recommend this video for beginners of Brioche. Thank you.
Great teacher. Thank you sooooo much
Agree, but it'd be better the yarns will be of more contrast colours

Best video on brioche. Makes sense after trying so many others. Thankyou.
your explanation is the only one that is totally clear and understandable. Thank you so much!!!
Nice to find a tutorial that a person could understand! Thank you!
This is the clearest, easiest demonstration of the two-color brioche stitch that I have found
I am almost 70 years old and never attempted this stitch because of the complexity of it, this video has made me want to try it. Very clear and easy to understand, brilliant video! Thank you for posting : D
