Learn to knit a reversible brioche beanie hat!

FOUR Sundays from 2-4pm on the following dates: Sept14th & 28th, Oct 12th & 26th 

Brioche can seem scary, but we can flip that on its head...or rather, on yours! Andrea Mowry's Harlow Flip is the perfect project for someone looking to dive into brioche and get a cute accessory in return. 

Pick two colors that you love too much to choose between and work up a project that lets you wear them both. Or, grab the perfect complement to that single skein of Spincycle Dream State that you've been wanting to knit with. 

What you need to know and be comfortable completing without help from the instructor (or you're willing to learn before this class): Must be comfortable with knitting basics. While brioche knowledge is not REQUIRED for this class, some basic understanding will help you succeed. This is not an appropriate class for beginner knitters, but would be a great first brioche project for more intermediate knitters. 

What you'll learn/skills you will improve on: brioche stockinette in the round, two-color tubular cast on OR German Twisted Cast on for brioche, brioche decreases and increases, counting your rows in brioche, how to fix brioche mistakes, and syncopated (color changing) brioche
