Notes

Inspired by Suhihes at Karlsruher Jahresanfangsstrick in Kleine Dorfvilla Ettlingenweier on Jan.4th 2014

Hm - frogged them after finishing the leg and the heel.

I did not like how there was a gap where needles joined, especially at the beginning of the round. Will have to investigate how to avoid that when knitting Brioche in the round.

In addition, I planned to use them for wrist warmers, but 60 stitches in Brioche was too much. So if I did this again, I might go for a smaller stitch count and make a wrist warmer.

Nevertheless I liked the squishy fabric of that Brioche.
