Blooming Brioche
Featuring alternating sections of textural garter stitch and squishy two-color brioche, this large shawl has color popping up in all the right places. This piece is knit from tip-to-tip, creating a large asymmetrical triangle shape that is easy to style and will soon become a wardrobe staple to get you through cool nights and breezy days. Basic knowledge of two-color brioche, including increasing and decreasing is required.
