Day 6 = July 7, 2014
Over the next month I will be changing the format of my blog slightly. I will still blog every day, but I am going to dedicate Mondays to MY personal knitting. I will go through the entire process of creating a knit item with weekly Monday updates until it is finished. I am also going to dedicate Fridays to Fabulous knit pieces designed by others.
So I would like to introduce you to my 2 new days:
- My Monday
- Fabulous Friday
Today starts my first My Monday project, a brioche knit headband in 2 colors. The yarns are both Lion Brand Yarns from the Vanna's Choice line. The colorways are Sapphire pictured first and Patchwork Grey pictured second.
I have cast on 80 stitches using the backwards loop method. This will give me a greater stretch potential since I am an extremely tight knitter. I have knit 4 rows in the garter stitch and setup row A for the brioche pattern part. I have already had to rip back 6 rows once and 2/3 of a row twice.
I am expecting to have a completed headband for next week's My Monday.

Knitting question of the day
Have you knit brioche before?
My Knitting,
