    Superb explanation & demo. Bitter experience has taught me not to embark on a project using a new technique without knowing how to fix the mistakes. …because It would be miraculous if I didn’t make any. Thank you. ❤

    Thank you!!! I have avoided brioche because I always make mistakes and cannot figure out how to fix them. Because I'm a brioche newbie, I have only used single colors, which makes the mistakes more difficult to find than in your example, but now I have the confidence to try again with swatches.

    I am making a blanket for my grand daughter and I used your brioche workshop tutorial, to practice the stitch, as it is now part of the pattern. Thank you for this tutorial.

    OMG you’ve rescued my Eyeball shawl with this tutorial, Stephen! In the last 2 brioche rows, 3 columns next to each other fell of the needle, about 4 rows deep. Thanks to your instructions and lots of focusing, I managed to fix it completely. I am soooo thankful 🥹

      @@awatson32 it was in the middle of the row, not at the edge. I guess to need to keep in mind which stitches are the side stitches and which ones are the other dropped stitches. Good luck!!

    That was totally my first try at Brioche, the exploration station. I was really scared of doing it that put it away for two years! Then I followed your tutorial on a Swatch and just went for it. Honestly I think sometimes we are our own worst enemies, that little niggling voice in our minds, telling us not to try, that it's too hard and we'll never be able to do it!.
    Ignore that voice, just have a go, what's the worst that can happen, it's only knitting!
    Thanks for your inspiration and guidance, you have been a massive help in getting me to ignore that little annoying voice that says don't even bother trying. 😘

    I figured out how to fix a brioche mistake on the straight, especially with just one stitch or column, but I get into trouble when it comes to an area where there are increases and I've dropped several stitches.
    I would like a tutorial on fixing a dropped icord edge, or do you already have one that I can get a link to?

    thank you so much, i just recently learned how to pick up a dropped stitch while knitting a sock..i got past the heel flap and told myself i am too far just to rip the whole thing out as i have done in the past so i searched how to do it and it isn't as hard as i thought. thank you Shephen for explaining this. i have told my children many times, you learn from your mistakes so that must make me a very smart person because i've made many mistakes in my life. . just don't keep makinng the same ones over and over.

    Thank you thank you !!!! When I made a mistake, I tried and tried to figure out how to fix and I gave up and tore out my work back to the mistake. Watching your video, it looks easy to fix mistakes. I was making it way to complicated. I’m going to practice this, so when I’m in a big project I know how to do it. This is awesome !!!!

    Thanx so much!! I want to make a simple straight long Brioche winter scarf with amazing colors for my “brainless” project. A brainless project is the one I do on my lap, later in the evening, with the tv on. But I was afraid of dropping a stitch or losing the pattern! Now you have saved the day!
    (I generally do Stephen West projects at a table! With all those yarns in order and untangled=100% brain function!) 😅
