I like this stitch too.  Sure, why not have a class with it.

Hi All,



I have recently taught myself to knit one form of the Brioche stitch.  This
is sometimes called Fishermen's rib, German Rib as well as other names.  It
is a slip stitch pattern that can be used with strands of single or multiple
colors.  At this time I am only doing single color work.  The stitch
produces a very thick plush fabric and is usually done with wool.  I've used
both wool and acrylic yarn.  Scarves are a great first project in this
stitch.  If anyone is interested in learning how to do this stitch. I would
be willing to talk to Joyce about my teaching a class.  You would have to
know how to cast on, knit, pearl and bind off.



Your thoughts?



Annette
