My word!! I honestly wasn't even going to look at Brioche, but the way you've demonstrated it so clearly, I'm totally going to move out of my comfort zone and give it a go - wish me luck!
@@emmaswartz6653 @basilsfriend good luck to both of you, I’m sure you’ll do fine. I have done brioche before and will opt for the mesh solution which I find absolutely beautiful 😊
Have no fear! I did 2 colour brioche for my second ever project, I had only made a cowl in stockinette before when I attempted doing a brioche cowl. It was actually not difficult at all, my only advice is just to pay attention to what you're doing because mistakes are a bit tedious to try and fix. I watched Arne and Carlos' tutorial as well and that was helpful :) Good luck!
I’m so enjoying all the textures - it’s becoming a sensory blanket for me as I’m knitting. Leaning towards attempting brioche for the first time to break up the hole-y textures. Thank you so much - every section is new learning for me! I’ll be celebrating my 1 year knitting anniversary with a piece I never dreamed I could accomplish 🙌
I love it! I never thought I could knit like this! With your videos, clear instructions and enthusiastic encouragement, I am getting so much more confident. I’m so proud of my shawl. THANKYOU 🧶🧣
He is naturally funny which makes watching the tutorials so much fun. I throw these episodes on even if I'm knitting something else. Although this pattern will be cast on soon.
Yes ! I’m so glad to get to try some brioche! I’ve been meaning to try it and now I get to do it with you holding my hand! Thank you for another amazing tutorial. I can’t wait to start later this evening.
Have never done brioche and was petrified … am loving the tutorial and the description of “stitch with a shawl”. I think I am going to give it a try. Thanks Stephen!
Puhhh, Mr. West ihr "Criss Cross" verlangt mir einiges ab, dass ist echt Arbeit, am schlimmsten empfinde ich das weiterschieben der Maschen...😁 Da hätte ich aber einen Tipp, evtl. nicht für Alle...ich stricke mit austauschbaren Spitzen und habe mir jetzt einfach eine 2,75 mm Spitze drauf gedreht, damit geht bei mir das Weiterschieben um einiges leichter und ich werde vielleicht bis zum nächsten Freitag mit Section 11 fertig🙄 Dies ist mein erstes Projekt von Stephen West und mein erster MKAL, es macht mir Mega-Spaß und auch wenn mir nicht alle Muster supergut gefallen, bleibe ich hartnäckig am Ball und ziehe das jetzt durch😀 Ich habe bis jetzt schon viel Neues gelernt, u.a. Brioche, worüber ich mich sehr freue👍 Tausend Dank an den "Meister" für diese hervorragenden Tutorials, Chapeau 🎩🎩🎩
You are an amazingly beautiful teacher. Your love for the crazy and teaching is so obvious. Thank you from the bottomest portion of my heart. Love you 💖
Stephen, you are an incredible teacher. I avoided brioche for years until THIS pattern, and this video (and I've been knitting since 1978). You have totally broken through my fear/anger at previous brioche instructions by others. You make it so dang easy. And I LOVE the troubleshooting-- for example, how to find a dropped brioche stitch. I also love, "if you don't have the right number of stitches, just throw one in/out somewhere..." Thanks, too, for the "counting 11 in the reverse color A column" for figuring out how many rows to do in the brioche section. I would not have figured that out, and I've been worrying about it. I don't have to worry because of these great videos. FYI, I don't think -- even as experienced as I am -- that I could have done this pattern (or done it correctly) without these videos. They are an absolute must, at least for this pattern.
Just on the short rows of section 2 and I am looking forward to my favourite brioche! Your teaching is so clear. I had tried to learn brioche without success but having watched your tutorials I took on Flying Foxtails as a first project and nailed it! This shawl is a real knitters workout, new techniques and challenges every week so far. I'm not 100% happy with my colour choices but I'm adding in a few extra pops and trusting that the overall effect will be wonderful. Thank you for helping thuis overworked, exhausted doctor to stay sane amidst the madness x
I originally thought my skill level wasn’t ready for brioche but this shawlography has been such a learning experience, I had to do it. I finished the brioche (with a few boo boos) but your instruction was so amazing. I loved the stitch shawl and party analogies - they were very helpful for me. At the end of the section, even though I made a few mistakes, I understood what I did wrong and was able to read the knitting. Thank you for the great instruction!!. I’m working on the criss crosses and they are so beautiful. I decided to add a strand of mohair to this section and have absolutely no regrets. Anything goes 😀. Can’t wait to see clue 4.
Your delicious design continues! I’m so happy you have included brioche, as I really enjoy knitting it. Pretty exciting how many knitters will be learning brioche via your excellent tutorial! Way to spread the love! I am starting the triangles today and will see how progress goes this week. Having oh so much fun being part of your MKAL, Stephen 😄🥰🙏🏻
You are INSANE!!! This is so awesome!!! Don't know that I can keep up, still working on the short row wings of clue 2. But this is really amazing. And I love your fingerless mitts!
Both choices are fantastic. This is such a great MKAL. This has to be one of my favorites. Its very exciting and mysterious it has the intriguing affect like texture time and speckle and pop. Goodness all of them. I have a such a blast with color coordination and textures, this is great. Thanks so much for hosting these and designing such memorable projects. Both brioche and eyelets are beautiful. Guess I need to make two Shawlography shawls.
I just started bobbles last night! Learning to knit with a babe under 1 has its challenges 😂 but I’m so excited about everything I’ve learned so far knitting along with this shawl!
I don't get much time to knit every day so I am only about halfway through the brioche part of this section (and I started in September). But I love this shawl!! This mkal has been so much fun! Stephen, you are a wonderful teacher and your camera angle is perfect! I have really enjoyed how you show both knitting styles on new techniques and slow it way down for us!!
Awesome video! Such clear instructions for brioche! Thanks so much for your work on these videos, they give me have the confidence to try on these wonderful techniques!
I am nowhere close to finishing Clue 2 but I am embracing my pace and enjoying the creative process . I can’t wait to start on Clue 3, it’s a beautiful section of the shawl.
Me, too. Working full time makes it tough to keep up. But I’m so glad I trained myself to knit 2 color brioche last year; it prepared me for MKAL 2021 😊
Well, even though I’ve failed previously to knit Brioche, I’m going to have a go and get out of my comfort zone, I’ll start this section this afternoon, you make it look so easy.
Ohhhh how cute is this little brioche! Love it. In two hours I can start this section. And I will enjoy this like the others. Great pattern. Thanks. Many greatings from Stuttgart.
I think Brioche needs a pup-sized shawl filled with treats. :-P Looking forward to getting started on this section once I finish up with the last wedge for clue 2 (currently busy with that).
Stephen, you've got us out here workin'! Hambone, hambone... 😂😁 I love it! My first MKAL and it's been fun. Thanks for your inspiration and zeal. Greetings from Haarlem (Velserbroek, actually).
I am picking up my Shawlography from last year, where I left off after completing Section 2 with the shortrow wedges. Now, in Section 10, having chosen the brioche option, I have knit Row 1 (RS) row and Row 2 (Wrong side) with color B, and am beginning to start Row 2 (2nd wrong side row) with Color A, when I counted stitches and realize I have only 408 instead of 415. Can I increase to get up to the correct number of stitches, or will this mess up the brioche columns at this point? You are an amazing designer and wonderful teacher. Thanks so much.
The clues always drop on my Mondays for work - I work 4 eleven hour days - Fri Sat Sun Mon, so my fingers are itching until I can really devote knitting time on Tuesdays. 🥴
Stephen! You said it doesn’t matter if there are extra stitches etc but it totally does! I have a situation where I’ve got a single stitch before the shawl stitch but I know it should be the other way around! Do I just knit this brioche regardless and it’ll sort itself out after this first brioche section row? Scary!!!
I love the texture and sensory element of this pattern. This is totally going to become a sensory comfort object for me and I’m loving trying out all of these fun techniques. I’ve been using varied yarn bases as well so I’m getting a very fun textural smorgasbord to enjoy.
My first try and pleased so far with the results. Only I’m not sure how to count to get that 435. I’ll watch video again and see if Stephen explains. I thought somewhere there’s a 2 stitches (YO + original)counts as 1? 🤔
Amazing shawl !! World like to know if all vídeos will be available or will be deleted after ending the Mkal ? Because I am learning so much !! And when I will be able to buy all yarns necessary I would like to try it. Thanks
Anyone have recommendations for getting those wraps over the joins of your interchangeable needles? I feel like I'm going to break my yarn, I have to push so much. I could really use any advice!
I'm a tight knitter and have suffered with needle and cable joins. Loosen up! In your body and the yarn. I use to choke the needles with the yarn when making a stitch. To solve the immediate problem of moving stitches over the join, find some ease in the row. Move the stitches from the needle to the cable. Starting with a small segment close to the join, pull those stitches using the extra yarn over the join and onto the needle. Continue until you have enough to start working the stitches and not too tight.
Can anyone help me. Unfortunately the pattern support couldn’t advise. I’m 8 stitches short and just about to start the brioche section. I think I’ve been short for quite a while! Can I just go ahead and this will work out okay?
Anyone else back, attempting to finish last years before this years starts? After finishing the brioche, i needed a rest before having ago at the crosses, just wasn’t to be this long!
Ouch!!! Section 11 is turning out to be a b&^*# ! When doing the wraps (four times around each knit stitch), you should tell people to either wrap those really loosely or to use a larger needle for the wrapping, then slip it all onto a smaller needle. OR be sure to use interchangeables and be able to change your left hand needle to a smaller needle so you can push those wraps onto the needle (from the cable). It's pretty much impossible to push those wraps up from the cable to the left hand needle. I don't even know if I can pull the needle out to rip back and start this section over. (A local knitting friend said she actually CUT her cable to free her stitches... I really really do not want to do that.)
My one comment on Brioche. I've done it many times, so I'm not intimidated. However, on Row 4 WS I realized that I'd dropped a stitch while working Row3 RS. I was able to undo it and with DPs pick it up at the beginning and hopefully I've repaired it. After a couple more rows I'll be able to see if I did it right. For those unfamiliar with Brioche, maybe take some other yarn and needles and work up a swatch to become familiar first, and take your time while working it on your shawl. Don't drop a stitch like I did!

I'm recovering from cancer surgery while working on this and love the journey. It's like each section is visiting a new country or trying a new food.
I totally agree with you! Not a dull moment! take care!
Get well soon!
Think of this project as a healing exercise. I pray that you heal quickly and completely. Take care!
What a lovely way to put it! I've been having so much fun, too.
Another vlogger coined it best: In Stephen we trust.
My word!! I honestly wasn't even going to look at Brioche, but the way you've demonstrated it so clearly, I'm totally going to move out of my comfort zone and give it a go - wish me luck!
Me too, good luck to you.
@@emmaswartz6653 @basilsfriend good luck to both of you, I’m sure you’ll do fine. I have done brioche before and will opt for the mesh solution which I find absolutely beautiful 😊
Just try, u will enter the new world!
I felt the same way about "M1L" and "M1R", then I stumbled across the Boneyard shawl video and I feel like a "M1L"-"M1R" BOSS

I’m so glad I trained myself to knit 2-color brioche last year, using Nancy Marchant’s excellent instructions.
"Don't worry... Don't rip-out... Just fudge it." What a delight!
Wow they say he explains the stitches it make me think I could do it and I’m a very new to knitting 🧶
