Introduction
The title of this pattern is an homage to a musical that will forever hold a special place in my heart: Sweeney Todd. The two-color brioche sections almost form blades against the foamy texture created by the hexagon stitch, and the overall look reminds me of a cool spring morning by the sea. I’m sure that Mrs. Lovett was imagining romantic evenings (and mornings) snuggled up next to her Mr. Todd as they watched the light of the sun dance across the water.

Included in this pattern are both written instructions for the brioche techniques as well as links to video tutorials.
