I bought the yarn, Adriafil Mistero, at my local yarn shop a while ago when it was on offer and thought then that it would look fabulous in a brioche. Like many I have avoided brioche but having now discovered how easy it is in the round am a complete convert. This cowl knitted from the broken seed stitch up switches between the blue and red (or light and dark) yarn giving a great texture no matter which way you choose to wear it.

You will need to be able to complete a cast on and cast off, knit and purl stitches whilst knitting in the round with instructions for the brioche section given
