Her tutorial is very helpful.

After row 68 I have no idea how to place markers correctly at the separatory columns. I only placed markers between motif in the black frame and therefore only one feather increased. Supposedly 9 feathers but i only get 7.

At first I decided to carry on because I didn’t know how to fix it until Happy Knitter pointed it out for me (with picture). She is very kind indeed. Thank you Happy Knitter :) I’ll try to fix it.

My mistake actually at row 49 of the second repeat. However I only removed up to row 57 to fix the separatory columns. I discovered this when I knit my 2nd peacock shawl. Although it is not perfect, at least I can understand the constructions better now.

Brioche can be very addictive and requires super mindful because to un-knit stitch by stitch for rows can be super disastrous. But the final outcome is super sa-tis-fy-ing!

I used i-cord bind-off for this shawl.
