Brioche Round Two Color

- Learn the steps necessary to start a 2-color brioche project, worked in the round.
PLEASE NOTE: in the video where I say to twist the colors at the beginning of round... don't! I'm going to eventually re-shoot this and omit the twist. When you come to the end of round, move the yarn that you're no longer using out of the way and pick up the new color from underneath without twisting. It will ensure that your work is fully reversible!

A tutorial to knit brioche rib, in the round, using two colors.
Knit Along
What you'll need:
- 16" circular needle in a US 8 (or DPNs, your preference)
- 2 colors of worsted weight yarn (I'm using Wooly Worsted in "Saffron" and"Aqua" from Ewe Ewe Yarns)
- Stitch marker
Here's the written version of what I'm speaking about in the video.
Abbreviations:
- brk: brioche knit (knit the st together with its wrap)
- brp: brioche purl (purl the st together with its wrap)
- sl1yo: slip 1, yarnover (with the working yarn in front, slip the st purlwise, creating a wrap as you move the working yarn into position to brk or brp the next st)
Cast on 80 sts (if you are using DPNs you may cast on fewer on each of the 4 needles, ensuring that you have multiples of 2 on each needle).
Round 1 (setup round, Color 1): *K1, sl1yo; rep from * to end (last st worked is the sl1yo).
Round 2 (BRP rnd, Color 2): *Sl1yo, brp; rep from * to end.
Rnd 3 (BRK rnd, Color 1): *Brk, sl1yo; rep from * to end.
Rep [Rnds 2 and 3].

Great instructions, clear images and sound with no irritating background music. Thank you
Great instructions but I am still stuck at how to carry on with ending or beginning with the next row I have watched so many videos but still can not get it please help thank you.
I finally got brioche knitting, you just made it so much clearer. tHANK you😊
That's wonderful! Congrats on your new skill!
It’s finally coming to me
I just subscribed, I want to knit brioche, with two color.. this looks like the easiest tutorial, yet.
After a number of frustrating attempts to learn brioche knitting, I came across your video. Thanks to you, I have finally conquered it. I absolutely love the look of brioche and so will the recipients of all the gifts I intend to make with it. Much gratitude being sent your way.
Susie C. Oh wonderful - I’m so glad it was helpful! Have fun brioche-ing those gifts!
Thank you thank you. Struggling compleing thsi at the beginning & end of rounds. Seeing how you handled is helpful.
Being new to 2-colour brioche in the round, I always made a mess at the beginning/ end of the round. Finally I know what to do with each strand as I transition!! Thanks for the straightforward explanation!
Awesome! Way to master it. Have so much fun brioche-ing!
That's exactly what I was having trouble with! This video explained the beginning and end of rounds very clearly.
Finally a truly excellent tutorial on Brioche 2 colour in the round! There is another video that is okay, but the sound is so poor it's not usable - your video is ideal - clear video and clear sound! Thank you - I can do this now! :D
This was SO helpful! And I really appreciated the camera angle/white background/extra repetitions of the stitches, etc. Thanks!
Thank you! I have wanted to try this technique forever, and finally found the yarn and pattern to tempt me to take the plunge. FAIL! I've been going around and around, having patches where everything looks good, but mostly epic messes of several different types.
Your video is one of the best I've ever seen on UA-cam, in terms of quality -- almost totally steady in terms of camera and hand position, perfectly lighted, colors of the yarns and even of the needle had great contrast and distinctness (for visual clarity), and your voiced instruction was perfect -- not the endless verbiage of some, that go on and on but don't manage to convey much instruction.
Your instructions are clear and pretty concise. The result -- I finally see what is the chief mistake I'm making, and can't wait to tear out the mess I've got, start over, and finally get the result I've been hoping for! THANK YOU! :D
My mistake: I somehow got the impression that the yarn overs were different from regular yarn overs, so I was doing the YOs on the knit rows backwards! Disaster. I can't thank you enough for your beautifully shot, clearly explained video! (My project is a gift, but I love the tan and aqua combination so much, too, that I may have to make something like that for myself when I'm done.)
Thank You. You explained it very plain.
Thank you for your explanations! it's the first time I really understand and remember how to knit brioche.
You're great!!
I love this video! it is explained so well I finally get it. I have been trying two colour brioche and never got it until this video. Thanks for making such a clear video.
me too thanks for sharing this video
Thank you! Clear instruction!
This is a excellent video. Expertly explained at every step. Many thanks
Thanks so much for this video! I was trying to find a two color brioche in the round tutorial that starts with the cast on and this is perfect. I'm also struggling with DPNs so I may switch to two circular needles.
Your brioche videos are so helpful. Thanks so much!
I could fully understand step by step the two color Brioche. thank you..
You are a wonderful teacher
Merci pour la vidéo très explicite. Il faut dire que je les ai repassées et repassées ces images pour bien comprendre le passage d'un rang à l'autre ou je "m’emmêlais" sans arrêt , il faut dire que le début d'un travail avec des aiguilles circulaires n'est pas chose simple, le travail s'est retourné plusieurs fois d'un rang à l'autre mais j'y suis arrivée quand même à la longue . C'est un point très agréable à tricoter quand on maitrise bien de plus il est très joli.
Merci pour le partage
Vous êtes les bienvenus!
Thank you for the video! I finally understand how to do the two color brioche.
Very impressed with this video tutorial. Thank you for putting it on U-tube.
Saying slip one when you YO and yarn over when you sl was throwing me off lol, but very helpful video!
thank you :) now I am able to brioche knit in rounds too :)
Muy bueno tu tutorial, clarísimo. Muchas gracias
Thank you. You explain it really well, without wasting any time. I am ready to try now!
Very clear and helpful!
Buenisima la forma de explicar me encanta el video!! Great video, Thanks
NICE A D CLEAR INSTRUCTIONS WORKING WITH TWO COLOR.
This video is the most well explained
Thanks, Barbara!
...another very helpful tutorial...thank you.
so i've been watching and learning a lot how to make brioche stitch in to color and after i watch your video finally i can make a brioche in two color!! thank you so much for your video, btw can you make a video how to cast off? because i just made up ways to end it lol, thank you so much!
I'm so glad my videos have helped - I love hearing success stories! If you look at my list of videoed you'll see a tutorial on changing from brioche to standard knitting. This video will help you get back to standard knitting so you can bind off it normal fashion. If that doesn't do the trick let me know and yes, I can create a whole bind off video in a week or two when I'm back in the office! Thanks again and congrats on your brioche success.
you explain it perfectly! thank you so much!
This is a very good video. I almost have this down. On your first stitch of round 3 you say you are purling. Looks to me like a knit stitch. It is that very stitch that is messing up my work, other than that it is beautiful. That whole row is a mess for me. Love to know what I am doing wrong there.
You are right, Arlene. I do say purl - how embarrassing! Clearly it is a brioche knit stitch. I apologize. I must have missed this in editing! If you work that first stitch as a brioche knit you should be right on track to work the rest of the row.
Thanks!
You're so welcome! I apologize for such a delayed response.
exactly the video I needed.....thanks
Thank you THANK YOU !!!!!
Brilliant video 😊
My ends and beginnigs look so messy. The rest finally looks ok
Good
Thank you. This was really helpful. 😊
I am so frustrated, I have 156 stitches on my needles and have knitted 2 rounds. The 3rd round according to the pattern is a knit round, I have used your example here on your first round but when I come to the end I have 1 last stitch to knit NOT sl1yo... I started the round like you did with a knit stitch. Why am I ending with a knit instead?
Same :( did you figure it out?
Isn’t nipping the two strands make a bump every time?
When I see you doing the third round (returning to the saffran color after the first row of aqua), you say "slip one, yarn over" but you're doing the opposite. You're bringing the yarn to the front and then slipping one. Am I crazy? Does the order between slip one and yarn over change depending on which round? Thanks in advance!
Sl1yo, said as slip one, yarn over is the name of a particular step intrinsic to brioche. The action of slipping the stitch is done before the yarn over is created, though, promise! ;) It's just done as one movement so it may look like the yarnover happens first. To break it down for you since I may do it too quickly in the video, the step is to move the working yarn to the front (or if you've just worked a purl st it's already in the front), slip the next st purlwise (which is the slip part of sl1yo) and then move the working yarn over the RH needle into position to either knit or purl the next stitch, which is what creates the yo part of sl1yo. I hope this helps!!
I think I have figured out the knit row but I'm confused by one thing. In the video it says to first slip one and second yarn over. But then she contradicts herself and says first brinf yarn to the front and then slip the stitch. So does it matter when you make the yarn over? Otherwise, everything was really clear and sooooo helpful!
This trips up a lot of people. I can't take any credit for coming up the term "sl1yo"; I'm simply using the terminology provided by the industry. However! To work a sl1yo - the first step is to bring the working yarn to the front between the needles (or leave it in the front if you're working a purl row), then slip the next stitch, then bring the working yarn to the back (or all the way round to the front again if you are purling) creating the yarn over. So TECHNICALLY the slipped stitch happens first but depending on how quickly you work the combination of movements I can see how it appears that the YO is worked first. Happy brioche-ing!
@@TheUnapologeticKnitter thanks! I'm glad to have figured it out.
What weight wool are you using and can you tell me how many stitches per 4 inches/10cm
I believe you misspoke in the video, the beginning of Round 3 you verbally said to purl, however, in the video, you knit.
Thank you!
I like very much that it is reversable. But when you carry the different colors in the back, don't it looks messy?
Bücher Laube You're not actually carrying any colors because each row is only worked with one color so there are no floats!
I can follow almost everything except the transition from the last stitch to first stitch. Do you have written instructions on where to leave the yarn you're working on before transitioning to the other yarn? Leave the yarn to the back, front, etc? Thanks
I need that answer also. Thanks
I don't know what I am doing wrong. I am able to get through round 1 fine, but then I get to the end of round 2 and I have too many stitches left. I am supposed to end with a sl1yo and I end up with a sl1yo and one leftover
It is screwing up everything :(
I have tried numerous times and watched your video in slowmo and read the directions to the t but it still turns out wrong :'(
Help??
Oh dear - that's no good! Just to clarify, when you finish rnd 2, you should be ending with a brp. I wonder if that's maybe what you're missing? The last stitch from the previous rnd should be the sl1yo (the slipped st and it's accompanying yarn over) that you will then finish rnd 2 by brp'ing. If that's not the solution, shoot me an email through my website (unapologeticknitter.com) with a picture and maybe we can sort it out.
How do you decrease to close the hat?
Great
does it matter how many sts I cast on, as long as it is an even number? Hoping to really tackle this today!
Hi Paula - you'll want multiples of 2 since brioche is worked in 2's (generally... there are some exceptions 😉). So whether you have 30 sts or 60, it won't matter so long as it's an even number! Good luck!!!
+SoCalMeaghan Knits Thank you! I am going to add my second color now! :)
Do you know if this works with a two-color cast-on?
You bet! You can use whatever cast-on you are most comfortable with. I always recommend a stretchy cast-on since brioche is so stretchy but a 2-color works great.
Thank you!!!
I have tried this pattern a few times, casting on 48 and 50 stitches. After working with the second color, I end with purling two stitches, then having two stitches left. I am not sure where I am going wrong. Does it have to do with the number of stitches I am casting on?
Hi Rebecca - it's not the quantity of sts you are casting on to be sure. You want an even number of sts - any even number so 48 or 50 should work just fine. Before I am able to help you too much more, I just want to make sure I understand what you're saying: you're getting through the setup row just fine (with color A), ending with a sl1yo and then starting the next round, with color b, with a sl1yo and ending with a brp? Or are you not even finishing round 2 correctly? If you'll get back to me with this information I can likely help you suss it out. Or you're always welcome to email me, photos always help. My email address is on my website - unapologeticknitter.com.
I believe the number cast on does make a difference. for instance, if you cast on 48 it will give you an extra 24 stitches in the next round, i.e., 72. but if you cast on 50 (extra 25 stitches in next round), you will have 75 once you do all the pass over stuff. from my extremely limited experience, the I find that an *odd* number is better. So, go with 50 (1/2 50 = 25) => 75. The preferred number should NOT be divisible by 4.
In brioche a stitch with its yarnover is counted as one stitch, so you are not adding extra stitches. Any even number will work.
It would help me so much if you could slow down the stitches. I have to stop and go back to be sure what I am seeing. Please if you could do these slowly I would be so appreciative. Thanks
I have tried to start the Frost on Roses hat on Ravelry five different times. But where the rounds end/begin, I have this strange laddering that looks like I'm just knitting a yarn over. It's frustrating and confusing. Do you have any tips on how to fix this?
Nicci Widener hmmm... without seeing it, it's kind of hard to diagnose but I suspect it's either a tension issue (which is very common with brioche, IMO) or that the final stitch isn't being wrapped properly. When we get to the end of a round, the final stitch, when it is mean to be worked as a sl1yo, tends to not get wrapped because things get confusing with the color change. So make sure it's being wrapped (just playing Devils advocate, you may be doing it just right). But my larger suspicion is that it's tension. Mine gets tighter, yours may get looser. I find it tends to sort itself out with blocking. Which I know sounds like a lame answer but without actually seeing it I can only guess. You're welcome to email me a photo or video for further help if you'd like.
I'd be happy to send you a couple photos. I started another, more simple project to understand the brioche stitch. I've done much better, but ran into another issue. What is the best way to send you photos?
👍👍👍👍🙏🙏🙏🙏
Awesome, thank you! Just subscribed😀
En español por favor
👏😊
question, when you cast on, is there a particular way to do it?
I find the long tail cast on is usually stretchy enough for me however if you have a tighter cast-on I'd recommend the Twisted German cast-on. It's a bit looser and looks very pretty and isn't hard to learn. I don't have a video yet showing this cast-on but New Stitch A Day has a great tutorial that shows it!
You keep saying SL1 YO, but your fingers YO SL1, should I follow your lead and do my wrap first?
SL1YO is a brioche term and I feel its important to use the terminology that you are going to see in patterns. However the mechanics of the actual step aren't important. The most important thing is that, with the working yarn in front, you slip the st purlwise, and then move the working yarn into position to knit or purl the next stitch which creates the yarnover.
I think you are seeing her bring her yarn to the front before she slips, and it looks like a YO.

At 3:58 Narrator says, "Brioche Purl," but actually does a Brioche Knit (Beginning of round 3)
Hi - Narrator here! : ) Thanks for noting this; it's pretty nerve wracking my first videos and this was amongst the first. i've tried to add in notes where I've made an error. Hopefully this won't trip too many people up too badly.
@@TheUnapologeticKnitter Hopefully most people are fine! This was actually my first comment on a video. I didn't know if you could add a text box to the video, just thought I'd let you know. Knit on!
I don't know what your post means but I caught the same mistake.@@juliakottke1000
you really need to go slower in your videos with the hand motions
