Admirable teaching - clear, cute, slow enough, lots of repeats, and encouraging. Yay! Thank you, Stephen!
I agree- Stephen makes it seem doable!
Stephen, thank you so much for separating the tutorial between Continental and English styles. You create great tutorials normally, and this makes it even easier to understand the instructions when we don't have to transfer back and forth between the two styles together in one lesson. 😊
Thanks for the feedback! I'll share some more soon. :)
I love you!! I have started and failed to learn brioche knitting several times, each time with just a mess. Your tutorial is so darn accessible and understandable! “Don’t go out without your shawl. Uh oh, lost your shawl, it wanted to be a belt, get back up there. The first step is knowing it looks weird.” I cannot thank you enough!
The shawl that wanted to be a belt was exceptionally endearing.

“Don’t go out the door without your shawl.” This has MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE for me. I can’t wait to dig in to a simple brioche experience so I can move on to brioche with increases and decreases.
What do you mean by that statement please?
I Will never forget the stitch that cannot go out without a shawl anymore! Wow, you make Brioche less intimidating for me! I am really going to try this. Thank you!!
In all my life I've never encountered a man knowing more about knitting than me. I love that I know nothing about brioche knitting and that the first video i find about it is a guy explaining so clearly and understandingly.
I'm sorry if i assumed genders and i might come over as close minded. Im trying to broaden my horizons and I'm still Learning. Not just about knitting. 😅
Thank you Stephen! That was the clearest demo of brioche that I have ever seen. I feel like you have opened a whole other world of knitting to me. I have wanted to try some of your beautiful brioche patterns but was afraid. I took a brioche class at a yarn shop years ago. There were about 20 people crammed around a table. I went back for help the next day when I got something wrong. The owner was very rude and told me I needed to learn to read my knitting. I had paid for the class and bought my yarn there. I was not a customer of that shop again and I avoided brioche from then on. I’ve so been wanting to learn. Thank you again. I have bought the Craftsy class too and had watched a little. This really clarifies it all for me and I am going to work on this and watch more of that, as I know she’s a good teacher as well, but I was intimidated by it. You have a wonderful way of explaining things and now I feel I can tackle the class and try Exploration Station which I have wanted to do for years!
very helpful! I never understood how to slip the stiches to the other needle on the circular needles. I was poking each one by hand. Silly me. Just sliding it down is so easy!. You've made such a great video here. So many good tips and demonstration, I cannot even count them. Thank you.
Thank u for taking the time to doing an entire brioche for continental knitters of several rows instead of switching from one to the other. This is extremely important & helpful. You're a real good teacher. Once again thanks!!!!
Thanks for the feedback!
I'm a continental knitter too and bought Marchand tutorial on crafts but her instruction was mostly with the English knitting. I just stumbled on Stephen's a d don't feel intimidated anymore 😅
Your ability to teach knitting in such an approachable and understandable method is amazing! I love just sitting and watching your tutorials even when I’m not working a project.
Simply wonderful explation! Thank you so much. 🎉🎉🎉
Glad it was helpful!
I was having trouble with the Italian cast my how to book was explaining. Then I saw this, you have renewed my hope of learning this knitting method. Thank you doing this and for sharing your talents with others.
You have a gift for explaining things so clearly!
I have been hitting this point in learning where I'm asking myself if I even like the way knit looks anymore.. but when I see your projects, I absolutely love them. You bring the dopamine back.

This is, by far, the best 2 color brioche tutorial I've ever seen. You're amazing and please never quit doing what you do!! 🙌🏻
Merci de l'avoir fait de deux facons Tu es un champion
Big day; I learned brioche and got my first vaccine! Thank you for sharing.
Nice!
I don´t even knit!! But like your style of teaching, explaining and demonstrating very much ! : ))) thx
I love that you knit Continental! So helpful to understand how to knit Brioche left-handed!
Ditto to the last message!! So helpful for those of us who have never brioched before. Thank you!!
We don´t belt! :-) Thanks for making me laugh! And thanks for the knit lesson Mr. West! Greetings from Germany Heike
This has revolutionized my life. I can now do it!!!?
I"m so glad!! :)
Just, Excellent! Thank you,
Stephen❤
You make the pattern make sense. Thank you
Brilliant teaching. So helpful. I feel confident even though it's the first time I've done brioche. The 'mistake' was super helpful.
You can always keep the yarn in back if you Norwegian purl the burp.
Yes, I love his examples too. Especially the ones for 'Make one right': "I'll be 'right back' ".
Thank you Stephen! Your repetitions and saying it out loud helped tremendously. I feel much closer to understanding what is going on when I work with brioche.
Dear Stephen you are a true teacher! ... brioche was always for me the representation of the "unattainable" ... UNTIL I FOUND YOU !! really THANK YOU! 🧶🧶🥰🥰🥰🥰😊😊😊😊😊😊🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻
İ came here frustrated from other videos where İ achieved nothing! Now I'm leaving happy and motivated because İ found the best teacher ever and my first brioche knitting is stunning! Thank you soo much!
Thank you for creating the only clear video I've seen on brioche knitting that actually begins with the cast on. I've seen 3 videos in a row that showed brioche knitting from the middle of the project and with instructions that were clear as mud. I'd love to buy you a coffee.
Great teaching voice and techniques. I love it when an instructor has a sweet melodic voice. Thank you.
Holy moly, you're the first video to say directly that the MC always goes first. How simple is that! Thanks!
I am only 9:06 in and I have to pause to say, you are the best, sweetest, teacher! Your metaphors make total sense, your noticings are so helpful, and though I am so new at knitting I know it will be awhile before I can do this, I know it will be at the ready so that I can like you are there with me. I just thank you so much for what this means to me. I lost my cousin before she could finish teaching me more than just garter and so I have dedicated myself to learning with you tube and you have become a very favorite accidental "cousin" and you make it so soft and kind and comforting. Thank you for wonderfully explaining and demonstrating something that can be quite daunting! I can't wait to do one of your designs once I learn this! 🐉You give me dragon confidence!!
Thank you Stephen. I am a continental knitter and your teaching style made this much easier to learn.
Glad it was helpful!
This was a fu**ing delight to watch. I was laughing out loud at the cute stitch outfits and it was incredibly informative.
In the round it becomes very easy if you knit the MC on the other side and the BC on the inner side. Like two spirals together one clockwise one counterclockwise. Knitting is like normal brioche. Nice technic also for garter etc in the round
Whomever invented this was a sadist !! : ) Thanks for making this soooo much easier!
THAN YOU,! after about 10 other videos, finally makes sense
Yeahhh I can't believe it, I can knit brioche 🥳😀! It took me many many times, and watched your video over and over again, also in slow motion. And now I feel so content with being able to knit brioche, what is so much fun. Thank you so much Stephen, I really appreciate your video and clear teaching!
Love the images, “shawl on the shoulder” and details like yarn in front before slip. I learned it’s all in the details esp what happens at ends of rows. Also to NOT practice with the buffalo/alpaca I bought for my scarf!! Poof!! Thank you!! You saved me.
Thanks for the so clear explamations.
Thank you for showing both knitting methods. I use whichever method works best for what I am knitting. I also appreciate showing how to recognize mistakes AND how to correct them. I just purchased your “night nook” sweater and was wondering how to do the saddle. Your instructions are easy to follow, but much more concentration intensive. You are the Kaffe of this generation. Both innovative, creative, and fun. Thank you.
With about 100 repeats I finally started to get it. Thank you !
I am so happy to read this, now I get some hope! I already tried 20 repeats, so maybe in 80 repeats I will also get it! Omg this is so difficult but really would like to learn this.
Wow..thank you. Can't tell you how many times I've frogged brioche projects. By George I've believe I've gotten it this time!!
This is so clear and concise - I will be coming back to this video
Omg !!! I finally understand, thank you thank you .
Thank you so much for your patience . It is obvious that you do your brioche with love and passion. And wool in the right hand , I am so grateful for explanation. Already see jumper in lime and white cashmere done mostly using brioche technique. 💗💗💗
That would be beautiful!
You are such a great teacher!!!!
Fantastic. Finally understood it, even though it doesn‘t give a clue why it‘s called brioche, because for me it‘s a french pastry. 😅 However, glad I‘ve found you. Just bouvht the brick sweater instructions.
Next time I am in NL I will check out your store. Thanks and best regards from Germany! 🙏👍🥰
Thank you I was so confused with the way some hold the yarn and do their difficult knit and purl. Finally I found someone who does then the way I do without making it really comes to understand
It's like you know I have four kids, husband, full-time job, 4 cats and 32 chickens. "How do I know what I just did?" describes my whole life.
I realize now why I don’t use the Continental method: it requires you to move the fingers of your left hand to manipulate the yarn and hold the yarn taut for the stitches. I am extremely right side dominant. My left side of my body is pretty much just along for the ride. My right hand/foot has to do all the hard stuff. The left hand just holds the needle. I am not saying never for Continental, but it won’t be soon.
Superb. Thanks for showing this continental style. Very clear and doable now.
If our brioche looks like it’s supposed to, will be because of your awesome instructions.
Thank you Stephen for a remarkable video. I've tried 3 different classes from 3 different knit shops to learn this and failed miserably each time. I can't wait to try again using your videos! I know I'll make mistakes but for the first time I think I'll be able to repair them from watching your videos.
Thank you very much, I was allways knitting continental, quick and easy and couldnt understand why my peoples ,Cousines did sooo complicated!..
well its the Englisch way😂
In Turkey they knitt Englisch

Thank you, Stephen, I really appreciate your guiding skill, and unforgettable too. God bless your knowledge more and more. Workie from Ethiopia, East Africa.
This is so perfect! My knitting goal for this year was to learn brioche stitch so I could make the Askews Me shawl and here are the videos to get me started :)
Quintessential teacher! Fun, comprehensive, complete. Thanks for a great tutorial Stephen. 👍👏👏👏👏💐
I finally understand!! And thank you for showing the common mistakes that probably made me give up learning this stitch in the beginning.
Omg I absolutely love you!! I can’t even begin to count how many different knitting tutorials I’ve watched… nope! No good! Wish I’d found you years ago! Where have you been all my life?! ❤❤
Love your comments :) and you are so clear on your teaching.
This is going to be my next challenge!
Omg!!!!! I think I finally get it!!! I couldn’t understand his guy know whether to brk or brp. But then I see that you just follow the ribbing pattern. Just knit the knots and purl the purls and those are after the slipped stitch. Thank you so much for the visual that the stitch is wearing its shawl. That makes so much sense.
Stephen you are so generous with sharing your knowledge… so appreciative…thank you very much.
Thank you so much. I already knew how to knit brioche with 2 colors but it had been a few years. Watching your video clarified a couple things for me. Good job! ❤️
Watching you knit is magical... Thank you!
This is a great tutorial. I began my first brioche project this year and I fould the slyo abbreviations very confusing for an Eglish style knitter. For brk rows it should be ytf, sl. For brp rows I simplify the yo and do it along with the slip, all in one motion. For this I "load" my needle with the slip then yarn over then let them both fall off the left needle to the right. I think it's a bit more efficient. Thank you for the tutorial!!
I’m a knitter of 4 and a half decades experience and always thought brioche was very complicated. I’m definitely gong to give it a try after you have mace it look so simple. Thank you, Stephen 😀🤓🤗🙏
Thank you so much - I’m doing a brioche jumper for the first time and I’ve pulled it back 3 times now - I now know what I’m doing wrong and your video was so so helpful - I’m going to practice on a swatch before doing my jumper again.
You've got this!
Stephen your tutorial is everything! I have been knitting for years, but avoided brioche because it looked too fiddly and hard to learn. I watched your video once, and was knitting away on a brioche scarf in minutes. Thank you, thank you for the continental instructions!! Almost no one does content for us continental knitters...can't wait to look for more of your work
Just wow. Your explanation and slowly showing it being done with examples of fixes is priceless. Thank you and thank you again.
This really just saved my life. Thank you kind person!! Thought i was going to have to give up on a project I was really looking forward to
What more can one say!? We love you Stephen! Thsnk you thank you, you make everything look fun and easy. Off to try brioche!
You can do it!
Your explanation is SOOO good! I can follow, it's funny, it's easy to stay concentrated to, it's complete and now I finally feel confident to start trying it!
THANK YOU1 Your teaching is so clear and precise. I have always been scared of brioche, but now am excited to try some! You are the BEST!
I love your teaching style! And thank you for showing both continental as well as English. Much appreciated!
Thank you Stephen. You are a master at explaining techniques.
Great teaching you make it easy
I have wanted to learn this. Thank you for being so patient and showing how to fix the slips.
Stephen, once again you are an EXCELLENT teacher. Concise and clear and to the point, and a soothing voice. Thank you for taking the time to do this. And a big thank you for separate continental and English sections. 😊
I just love you Sound waves scarf. So beautiful!
I've really struggled with learning Brioche knitting but will not be deterred. Thanks for showing BOTH English and Continental methods it really helps. Optimistic this tutorial will help me.
Thanks for the video, I think I would have given up on the brioche without it! I made the mistake of doing the yarn over after the slip stitch, I appreciated your comment on that. Everything is clear now, thank you Stephen :)
Very good demo this the Brioche Stitch is to be my next out of comfort zone challenge. 👍
Thank you for the explanations for English style☺️
Thank you thank you for starting at the beginning , I really needed to see how to start !!!!
it took me approximately a dozen tries but i finally got it! Maybe not the best thing to start with after a multi year knitting break but i got it!
Thank you so much , you've explained this to where it's really understandable for us english knitters
Great teaching Stephen. I’ve been knitting for almost 60 years. My gran taught my sister and I when we were very young but I’ve never learned the brioche stitch. I have been longing to learn. I may return to your tutorial and give it a try. Thank you so much. XAngela
It's so much fun! Once you get the hang of it, there's a nice relaxing rhythm to the motions.
Excellent teaching. This makes me want to branch out and try something new because it is so well explained. Thank you for this!!
Gracias, muy bien explicado y con mucha paciencia. Saludos desde Chile 🇨🇱
Thank you. The way you are explaining is awesome and easy to follow.
The speed of your cast on, wow!
Best Brioche tutorial ever! Thank you!
Your way of demonstrating is great!
I have to admit: it was a challenge, English not being my first language, and I did it!
You have the very best and simplified tutorial on Brioche I have ever seen! ❤ Thank you so very much!
Thank you so much for video.I am so in love in brioche but I never learn that enough.Hope this time ....
