Gauge:
17 stitches x 28 rows = 4 in x 4 in (10cm x 10cm) in Half Brioche stitch.
Be sure to measure your gauge after washing your swatch, as half brioche tends to grow and change drastically after washing.
Note on row counting: 28 rows means you can count 14 V’s in a brioche stitch column. Each V represents 2 rows worked (a RS and a WS row).
