Finishing

Binding off

Here I show a simple bind off method which has sufficient stretch for brioche. If you prefer you may use any other bind off method, as long as it is stretchy enough.

I am binding off using the MC on a RS row.


Weaving in ends

Ends can be woven in the same way in brioche as in regular knitting. However there is an additional method where the ends are tucked behind the yarn overs, which I show you in this video.

Here I am weaving in my ends before blocking, but you may do it after blocking if you prefer.


Blocking

Brioche is also blocked the same way as regular knitting. Here I show you three swatches, one done in bulky weight on 6.5mm needles, one in DK weight on 4mm needles and one in fingering weight, also on 4mm needles.
