The last few months I’ve had a wonderful time exploring Brioche Lace.

As I’m about to release my first Brioche Lace design, the Vineyard Lace Shawl, I want to shout-out @nancymarchantbrioche, who is not only the source behind much (if not all) modern Brioche knitting, but who literally wrote the book on Brioche Lace knitting.

It’s a wonderful resource for everyone who wants to dive deeper into this topic. It’s not available in print, but you can find an ebook version on Ravelry.

I am, as you may know, terrible at following patterns myself (hence why I’m a designer), so I’ve played around with the techniques for creating eyelets and combining them with decreases and came up with my personal style (which is to say that my patterns differ slightly from the techniques presented in the book).

I can’t wait to share my Brioche Lace designs with you, and give an in-depth look at this technique at the @expoteje Retreat next weekend (August 14-16) in/near Santiago de Chile (for which day tickets are now available as well!)

Gridlines is not only one of my personal favorites, it’s also been one of my most popular knitting patterns ever since it was first published in 2019.

I’m currently knitting my fourth version and I thought it was high time to give the pattern a bit of a fresh coat of paint.

While I’ve gotten lots of messages from knitters saying that they love the pattern and their finished sweater, I’m sure that the updated version will make it an even more enjoyable experience.
You can now choose between the (updated) standard pattern layout, the printer-friendly version, and the mobile-friendly version.

Check your Ravelry library or email inbox for the update notice!

Already in love with my Gridlines WIP. 🥰

And I gave the pattern a little bit of an overhaul in the progress. It now comes in 3 layout versions (standard, printer-friendly, and mobile-friendly) to make knitting it an even more enjoyable experience. ✨🎉🧶🩷

Twisted Cowl 2.0
It only took me about a year and a half to knit the replacement for my original sample that I lost in Madrid last year (the first time wearing it). 😅

Can’t wait to bring this one to @expoteje and show you the magic of Brioche cables.
