Note from Designer: Brioche stripes are easier to achieve than you might think. All you need to know are knit, purl, yarn over, yarn forward slip one, knit two together, and purl two together. Many knitters are stumped by the language unique to this stitch, but replacing “brk,” “brp,” and “yfsl1yo” with basic knitting terms for the same results will have you creating gorgeous two-color accessories in no time. This cowl is worked in the round with only one color at a time, so there’s no stranding.
