Easy for the Brioche first-timer and fun for a pro. Pretty crown decreases and a peek-a-boo second color make this a irresistible pattern for yourself or a great gift.
Sample uses three yarn weights but you can substitute the mohair and fingering held together with another DK weight yarn if desired.
Suggested Yarn:
Artistic Lilly
Color 1: (two strands held together)
Mohair 72% Kid Mohair, 28% Silk 459yds/50g, “Grandpa’s Farm Truck”
Gotta Have Shawls, 100% Merino 400yds/100g, “Cybertruck”
Color 2:
Versatile DK 75% Superwash merino, 25% Nylon 246yds/100g, “Flowers and Coffee”
Needles:
US 5 (3.75mm) circular needles, or size to obtain gauge
Notions:
Yarn Needle
Stitch Marker
Gauge:
12 sts and 16 rows = 2” with Color 1 in 2x2 ribbing, unblocked.
12 sts and 14 rows = 2” in 2-color brioche pattern, unblocked.
Yardage:
Mohair: 90/100/110 meters
Sockweight: 90/100/110 meters
DK: 80/100/120 meters
Finished pattern weighs 80g uses approx. 40g DK, 25g fingering and 15g lace mohair. If substituting the mohair and fingering with DK, Please allow at least 50g to make up for an additional ribbing section.
Finished Measurements
Small/Medium/Large: 20”(51cm)/22”(56cm)/24”(61cm) Rim Circumference
Height: 8”
NOTE: These directions will produce a very slouchy hat. You may decide to knit a smaller size than you would normally wear if you prefer a snug fit.
Pattern Notes:
2 Color Brioche makes a fun and squishy fabric but it can get confusing. You may choose to use periodic lifelines if this is your first brioche project as frogging backward it will be harder to pick up your stitches again than typical knitting fabric.
When you hit the Brioche section keep in mind that ALL odd rounds will be worked with Color 1 and ALL even rounds will use Color 2.
Take a look at my tutorials on decreases to see how easy it really is!
