Brioche Shawl Class | 2.5 hour workshop

This is an in person class held at Baaad Rabbits in New West.

You need to be confident in knitting & purling, previous experience in brioche helpful; either already taken the intro class at Baaad Rabbit's or have made a swatch.

This is an in person brioche shawl workshop for anyone who would like to make their first brioche project! Maybe you have tried before and have not been successful, maybe you have only made a brioche swatch, but now it's time to embark on your first brioche shawl!

You will learn to increase and decrease whilst working the pattern. Behutsam is a great first brioche project as once you've got past the first 11 rows, it's a 2 row repeat which really gets you into the swing of working brioche. 

Also helpful is that it only starts with 5 stitches, so if you make a few mistakes at the beginning it's not so bad starting again! 

Dates: 

• Saturday 2nd September, 12:30pm - 3pm
