One of the best tutorials I have seen! You work slowly, zoom in, hold your hands so that no stitches are hidden - that's a way to teach!!👏Really good job. Love the way you quickly turn off your mike when the child comes in😅Don't worry - I'm impressed by your video and children are a wonderful part of life. I'll be coming back to you! 🤩👍
I am watching your tutorial and had to make a comment. You are such a patient instructor, I mean you really show the "watcher" how to make this stitch by going slow so those that are new to this stitch can really see how to make it. You are tops!
5:03 is my favorite moment in the video. Snapping the camera off and then picking up exactly where you left off so that we knitters were not at all confused by the blip was amazing! Kudos for being able to make a video that is so clear and helpful while there are obviously children playing nearby. Great job. That is no easy task!
I have been enjoying your tutorials because you more slow enough so that people can see exactly what you are doing. For someone that learns as I do things it has been extremely helpful to watch you move slowly through the new pieces. Thank you for the super useful close up shots.
you've made this so much clearer to me, both with your clear close-ups and the two different ways to accomplish the individual stitch - thank you :) I'll be trying this today!
Your video is excellent, thank you. The picture quality rocks, and I love the fact that you go very slowly, give clear explanations, and repeat the stitch pattern over and over. This is so easy to follow!
I love your tutorials! It is really hard to find videos that clearly explain different stitches using the continental method. As a continental knitter, I appreciate all your work and your videos have helped me tremendously! Thank you so much!
its really nice to see the paterns from someone that knit with the same method as i learn from my grandma..its alot more easier to understand the patterns.thank you very much
That is the best instructional clip for a knitting stitch I have seen. Your spoken text is very clear, and everything you do and talk about is visible. You could probably make a living teaching people how to make instructional videos! I have been struggling with this stitch for so long because the previous written versions I've seen didn't explain well, and other video clips always had at least one essential point either so fast I couldn't see what they actually did, or off screen, or out of focus. (I kid you not!) Thank you so much.
I love the brioche stitch, it is among my favorites. This would be a great stitch for knitting sweaters. Thank you for your time & patience, this is a wonderful tutorial. Thanx for sharing your great knitting talent. Have a happy knitting day!!
Thank you so much for this video!! It’s the clearest explanation and visual of this pattern! I was so lost while watching a different tutorial on this same stitch! 🐝💛🐝
Thank you for a great tutorial - your films are fantastic, I love when you talk so clearly and slowly. I'm Polish so it's very important to me. Also a great blog! :)
THANK YOU SO MUCH! This is the best demonstration of Honeycomb Brioche stitch that I've seen. I did it once, a year or so ago, learning off other videos, and I loved the stitch. However, when I tried to use it again in a new pattern recently, I was doing something wrong, and couldn't quite replicate it again ... it was driving me bonkers for days. Your video enabled me to pinpoint and fix what I was doing wrong. Also, your "put the loose stitch on the needle and knit through the 'X' " tip is brilliant, because that's essentially what one is already doing anyway! 😊 Again, thank you so much for the helpful instruction, and I look forward to checking out your other vids!
Thank you so much for this great video! I was going insane over this stitch as I couldn’t figure out what I was doing wrong! I finally managed thanks to you :)
Very, very good tutorial. Your instructions are clear and understandable. I can imagine using this stitch in place of stockinette stitch in many patterns. Great!
Thank you for such great tutorial! I watched all other ones are English style and hard to see and go fast. This is continental style which is how most people knit with in where I am (English style is actually the minority so not sure why). I can actually follow this! Thanks so much!! :)
HI :) I've just gotten back into knitting after a hiatus of around 30 years. It didn't take me long to be fluent and knitting to tension again, phew! Anyways, I actually didn't realise all of the beautiful stitches and patterns that could be made, as I'd only really done rib before and using more than one colour yarn when I was a kid. Anyhoo, I saw the honeycomb brioche and I just 'had' to learn how to do this (among many others - but one at a time!!) and tried to follow other videos and I just couldn't get it. I mean, I'm not THAT unintelligent, but others tend to go a bit fast and/or only show you once before flying off and finishing off their row. I am so thankful I came across your video tutorial. A good teacher always understands what the students need to learn, and your descriptions and your taking the time to show us is an absolute must. In fact, before I found your instruction, I was about to give up and try another stitch. So thank you so much for sharing. You truly have a fantastic gift :)
Love your teaching technique. No fussiness, just straight forward. Would it be possible to always show front and back as well as sides of the project at the end of each lesson? This would be very helpful to those of us novice knitters. Thank you. Keep up your great work.
I really love your way of knitting with the yarn wrapped around the finger of left hand. i am so going to try that. just have to figure out how you purl like that. It might sound funny but although I am a native English speaker I learned to knit in France so i don't really have all the English terms down.
Thank you for this video. I’ve been looking into this stitch, but every other pattern and video was difficult to understand. Your video was very well done and showed a simple way to make this dishcloth.
Are you a lefty like me? I have been taught to knit - with some awkwardness at first - to knit right handed (i.e. I feed my yarn from the right hand index finger). Finally, I see how a lefty does it. I have learned something - including a new stitch! Thank you - you are an amazing instructor! :)
Thanks for watching :-) I am actually right handed, but find the continental style of knitting easier, and I also crochet with the yarn in my left hand.
Dziękuję bardzo w końcu zrozumiałam co muszę zrobić aby uzyskać ten ścieg. Oczywiście bardzo długi trwało zanim to sobie utrwaliłam ale dałam radę dzięki karteczkom które sobie przyczepiłam do każdej ze stron robutki
I just LOVED your video. So very clear and explained very very patiently. But I love it more with your baby in the background and you (being the dedicated mother) immediately stop the video and start back where you left off as though nothing happened :) very professional
between you & studio knit I have been very inspired to do this stitch. but I'm curious how do you add more yarn when working in brioche knitting? I'm a huge fan of the overlap join for regular knitting but unfamiliar with this stitch.
It is best to join a new ball at the beginning of the row. You can do it as with any other stitch - Russian Join is a good one th-cam.com/video/9MXT2mrR894/w-d-xo.html, if you are using wool you can do a felted/spit splice th-cam.com/video/PK-Ct09IxwM/w-d-xo.html, or you can do it like this th-cam.com/video/zTd5QKrESiM/w-d-xo.html
hi thank you for sharing this stitch with us. very ceasy and clear direction to follow. I have one question: how would you use this stitch In the round?
Here is a link for working stitches in the round, or you may want to check Nancy Marchant's website (aka Brioche Queen) www.sapphiresnpurls.com/2012/02/converting-flat-stitch-patterns-for.html or www.briochestitch.com/
Instead of separating that additional strand from the proper stitch, it's much easier if you slip the stitch with yarn over two rows before... This way two rows later, you only knit the stitch together with the yarn over made two rows below.
That is such a nice thick knit ... what a great pattern. And are you Canadian? Sounds like that accent to me. But anyway. Really love the vids. Keep'm coming. Thanks!
Excellent video. Would this be thick enough for a potholder if done with cotton yarn? I have a really thick pattern that I crochet, but I would love to find a thick, close pattern that I could knit.
FIRST, what a wonderful video! You are a masterful teacher! I cannot imagine how you do it because the image is so clear, and by proceeding so slowly I REALLY get what you are doing. I am beyond amazed! Now to my Question... is it possible to do the Honeycomb brioche as a mobius scarf--where you are only working one side of the fabric? or is the 'wrong side' knitting essential?
dizzy158 I have a tutorial on how to convert stitches for working in the round. You can find it here www.sapphiresnpurls.com/2012/02/converting-flat-stitch-patterns-for.html
Scroll down to the bottom, there is a little info on correcting mistakes in brioche www.briochestitch.com/archives/onecolorbrioche/general-information If i make a mistake with just about any stitch I keep going and increase at the end if my row is short, or decrease if I have too many. If the mistake is super obvious I generally just work backwards row by row until I get to where I made the mistake and fix it that way.
I'm knitting a cardigan and I would like to do the honeycomb stitch as of under the sleeves... my first row would be the right or the wrong side? I'm a little confused there... thanks! :-)
Hello, I want to knit a raglan sweater with this pattern, but I am not sure how to measure gauge since the rows and stitches are off set. Should I stick the gauge I would get by knitting in stoquinette stitch, or change needle size? The Vs look big. Do they count as one row, or two rows in terms of length? I hope I was clear... Thanks!
I am using this pattern in the middle of two other patterns. The first one was easy, but the second time I did it, the honeycomb pattern showed up on the wrong side of the work. In my project, the purl side is the right side.
Reading his back to myself, I don't think my question is clear. The honeycomb pattern row 1 appears to be on the purl side (the back of the work). But the purl side of my afghan is the right side, so in order to get the pattern to show up on the right side of my work, should I do row 1 on the knit side?
If a stitch pattern begins with a wrong side, then you would want to either work a plain row on the right side of your project so you can start the stitch correctly, or what I sometimes do if I am on the right side of the project, start with row two of the stitch pattern - if row two is the right side. Hope that makes sense.
hi madam. this is Manjula rajasekhar this is very beautiful stitch and very good teaching I learnt this by watching ur video. if want it in two colours how to do it. please let me know lam very interested to learn new patterns thank u
+Rajasekhar Phanibhatla I am going to refer you to Nancy Marchant's website. Here you will find instruction for two color honeycomb brioche: www.briochestitch.com/archives/stitchvariations/honeycomb-brioche-stitch
The row I knit plain after the cast on isn't part of the stitch pattern, I did that to make the first row of the pattern easier for me to work - it isn't necessary. It is only mentioned that a plain row was knit after cast on, not shown.
@melly1963able I recommend you look at Nancy Marchant's website, there is info on decreasing under 'working the stitch in one color'. briochestitch.com/brioche/
If you please, can you do a video of the two color honeycomb brioche. There is one other video on youtube that I saw. I can probably look a that one but I do like your videos too.
Lea Metcalfe That would depend on what side the other stitches start/end on I suppose. You could always just work a row of plain knitting or maybe yo/k2tog between if necessary.
I'm still trying to knit this stitch, so easy to follow and I understand it completely yet my honeycomb looks like somethings been chewing on it. Ha ha ha will try and try again. :-)
At last I've worked out why my stitches don't look so perfect. I'm using yarn from a jumper I started but went wrong so I un did it all, it's now got crinkles where it should be smooth. Whoops.
Lea Metcalfe If you skein up the yarn, soak in some water, squeeze out the excess, then whap it on the floor a few times, then hang to dry it will help relax the kinks. Blocking your finished item should also help get rid of any unevenness that might still be there.
Thanks for that advice, very helpful. I will carry on knitting with the yarn and block it once done. Your clips are great & I'm looking foward to seeing what else I can knit on my sampler from your guides :-D Thanks again.
Well, when I frog I pull the needle out and rip the whole thing out depending on how far in I am. If I am far enough in that I don't feel like starting over from the beginning, this is what I do: th-cam.com/video/bT_vimOyg9s/w-d-xo.html
Well, let's see.... I don't think I have ever had to work back on a stitch that uses knit below. You might find something on Nancy Marchan'ts site www.briochestitch.com/archives/onecolorbrioche/general-information
to frog it just take it apart and then look for the pattern and once you can do this by heart you will be able to reconstruct it like if you knew it from memory. to frog this means to take it apart, its a term many knitters use when they have to start projects over or take projects appart that they cannot use anymore. but other wise if you take this stitch apart to the first one, its easy to pick up. Good luck.
Every time I make a mistake, I have to rip everything out and start from the beginning again. Do you have any videos on picking up a dropped stitch in Honeycomb brioche? I've seen other videos on fixing dropped stitches in brioche, but it was ribbed brioche, not honeycomb, so it's a horse of a slightly different color. I also at times forget what row I'm on, even though I use a row counter. Sometimes I forget to change the row number when leaving my work, so I do a repeat of the row I just made. Are there signs to look for to know which of the four rows is to be done next?
I have never done a brioche project, just a few swatches for the videos. You can use a life line to prevent ripping back all the way when there is a mistake. I never use a row counter for projects, I like to slip the paper with the pattern inside a plastic binder sleeve and cross or tick off the rows with a dry erase marker. When I get to the end of the pattern, just wipe the marker off and start over. Sorry I can't be of more help, but you may find some on Nancy Marchant's website - she is the go to authority of brioche knitting.
Ah yes. I'd forgotten about life lines. I will employ that method & it'll save me much frustration, stress & wasted time. Thank you for responding promptly. I appreciate your gentle, thorough instruction.
Happy Lord's day to you each and every day. Isn't it great to wake up every morning knowing that we are in his hands and no matter what happens in his hands we are the winner?

Hello,
I want to knit a raglan sweater with this pattern, but I am not sure how to measure gauge since the rows and stitches are off set. Should I stick the gauge I would get by knitting in stoquinette stitch, or change needle size? The Vs look big. Do they count as one row, or two rows in terms of length?
I hope I was clear...
Thanks!
this is a great tutorial

Is there a set up row for this lovely stitch?
nope
It`s very good !
Can I do this with thicker yarn and size 13 needles?
Jshania Owens I think so. I'm using a sort of t shirt like yarn that is thick. it turns out decent.
hi madam. this is Manjula rajasekhar this is very beautiful stitch and very good teaching I learnt this by watching ur video. if want it in two colours how to do it. please let me know lam very interested to learn new patterns thank u

velmi rad by som sa naucila tieto vsetky vzorky ale mam tom nejaky misx bude musiet tvrde pracovat aby som na to dosla
muy bonito gracias.
Superb!
can you tell me pls how tp make decrease on thus stitch?
@melly1963able I recommend you look at Nancy Marchant's website, there is info on decreasing under 'working the stitch in one color'. briochestitch.com/brioche/
How is this worked in the round?
www.sapphiresnpurls.com/2012/02/converting-flat-stitch-patterns-for.html
If you please, can you do a video of the two color honeycomb brioche. There is one other video on youtube that I saw. I can probably look a that one but I do like your videos too.
So you don't have to knit a plain row before beginning the stitch pattern, you do a long tail cast on. By doing the long tail you can K1B right away.
I like the pattern DSL easy
If you are knitting this in sampler with other kinds of stitches do you start the honeycomb stitch on the right or wrong side of the piece?
Lea Metcalfe That would depend on what side the other stitches start/end on I suppose. You could always just work a row of plain knitting or maybe yo/k2tog between if necessary.
Doesn't take much to confuse me, sorry. Thanks for taking the time to answer my question. Merry Christmas to you and yours. :-)
@Lea Metcalft Haha, I also am easily confused :-) Merry Christmas to you too.
I'm still trying to knit this stitch, so easy to follow and I understand it completely yet my honeycomb looks like somethings been chewing on it. Ha ha ha will try and try again.
:-)
Can this be done in the round, and do I still need an eve number of stitches?
Yes, here is some info that may help you www.sapphiresnpurls.com/2012/02/converting-flat-stitch-patterns-for.html
At last I've worked out why my stitches don't look so perfect. I'm using yarn from a jumper I started but went wrong so I un did it all, it's now got crinkles where it should be smooth. Whoops.
Lea Metcalfe If you skein up the yarn, soak in some water, squeeze out the excess, then whap it on the floor a few times, then hang to dry it will help relax the kinks. Blocking your finished item should also help get rid of any unevenness that might still be there.
Thanks for that advice, very helpful. I will carry on knitting with the yarn and block it once done. Your clips are great & I'm looking foward to seeing what else I can knit on my sampler from your guides :-D Thanks again.
wish there was a reversible version....
can you demonstrate how to frog this stitch?
Well, when I frog I pull the needle out and rip the whole thing out depending on how far in I am. If I am far enough in that I don't feel like starting over from the beginning, this is what I do: th-cam.com/video/bT_vimOyg9s/w-d-xo.html
thanks for replying but with knit in the stitch below i don't find it works that way. any suggestion? ps. i love all the chirping birds!
Well, let's see.... I don't think I have ever had to work back on a stitch that uses knit below. You might find something on Nancy Marchan'ts site www.briochestitch.com/archives/onecolorbrioche/general-information
thanks. i'll take a look.
to frog it just take it apart and then look for the pattern and once you can do this by heart you will be able to reconstruct it like if you knew it from memory. to frog this means to take it apart, its a term many knitters use when they have to start projects over or take projects appart that they cannot use anymore. but other wise if you take this stitch apart to the first one, its easy to pick up. Good luck.
Every time I make a mistake, I have to rip everything out and start from the beginning again. Do you have any videos on picking up a dropped stitch in Honeycomb brioche? I've seen other videos on fixing dropped stitches in brioche, but it was ribbed brioche, not honeycomb, so it's a horse of a slightly different color. I also at times forget what row I'm on, even though I use a row counter. Sometimes I forget to change the row number when leaving my work, so I do a repeat of the row I just made. Are there signs to look for to know which of the four rows is to be done next?
I have never done a brioche project, just a few swatches for the videos. You can use a life line to prevent ripping back all the way when there is a mistake. I never use a row counter for projects, I like to slip the paper with the pattern inside a plastic binder sleeve and cross or tick off the rows with a dry erase marker. When I get to the end of the pattern, just wipe the marker off and start over. Sorry I can't be of more help, but you may find some on Nancy Marchant's website - she is the go to authority of brioche knitting.
Ah yes. I'd forgotten about life lines. I will employ that method & it'll save me much frustration, stress & wasted time. Thank you for responding promptly. I appreciate your gentle, thorough instruction.
