Brionia Hat and Brionia Cowl - patterns release

26.4.23

Have you ever tried brioche? I wanted to try brioche for a long time but it always were some excuses and other projects on my needles. However, new bright skeins from The Woolchemist tempted me to try it as soon as I got them.

Today I'd like to share my two new designs in brioche technique which are great for those who want to try it for the first time as well as for those who are looking for fancy and relaxing project - Brionia Hat and Brionia Cowl.

Both Brionia hat and Brionia cowl are also great for trying yourself in colorwork and using those single skeins from the stash which we all have in our knitting basket. There is another great thing what I love about brioche is that you knit one item but have two as all brioche knits are reversible and can be worn both sides!

 1. Brionia hat is a simple beanie with folded bream which is designed for both children and adults. Brim of hat is knitted in two colour brioche and the body of hat is knitted in single colour brioche. Pattern is available in sizes child, teen/adult M and adult L from Ravelry and Lovecrafts.



2. Brionia Cowl is knitted flat with two contrast colours and features syncopated brioche wave edges combined with contrasting simple brioche body. The cowl has triangular shape and the cast off edge is seamed to side of the body to create the cowl. Pattern comes in adult size and written with very detailed row-by-row instructions and chart. Knitting pattern for Brionia cowl can be found on Ravelry and Lovecrafts



Both hat and cowl are knitted with fingering weight yarn. For my samples, I used superfine merino hand dyed yarn from The Woolchemist in shades neon pink and neon orange. Both those shades are dyed with UV reactive colourants and gets very bright in sunny days. This yarn should react on UV lamps, but I had no chance to try it yet.


Also, I’d like to offer special discount for my readers. Enjoy both patterns with 20% off on Ravelry with code BR20. Offer valid until 1st of May, 2023
