I had to frog a few rows.<br /><br /> Lifeline can be placed after the repeats (row4) at any stage of pattern.<br /><br /> Please look at this utube video to see how it is placed, start to finish and also how to place stitches back onto the needle.<br /><br /> This way no need to fix mistakes just frog to the lifeline.<br /><br /> Hope this helps.<br /><br /> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MVX3vljypwMonikaRose Crochetshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09775252755580332888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18585871.post-88744070079401359032011-10-16T17:14:27.616-04:002011-10-16T17:14:27.616-04:00Dear mr penguin, I'm very glad you found it us...Dear mr penguin, I'm very glad you found it useful, it was a nightmare for me too! ;)PippaWhttp://pippacrochet.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18585871.post-43865436809302370022011-10-16T17:10:42.012-04:002011-10-16T17:10:42.012-04:00omg. i literally spent all day trying to figure t...omg. i literally spent all day trying to figure this out. it finally all clicked when i read your simple instructions. thank you so much for sharing!mr penguinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16349102717085992730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18585871.post-48657546480749005222011-07-02T12:13:20.179-04:002011-07-02T12:13:20.179-04:00Hi Carrie K, I'm glad it helped you!! :DHi Carrie K, I'm glad it helped you!! :DPippaWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06845624003269280711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18585871.post-19851469096792749122011-07-01T18:54:02.420-04:002011-07-01T18:54:02.420-04:00Bless you!!

In the book "Knitting Brioche" though they suggest three different ways: Two color cast off; Barided binf off in the round; Italian bind off. I guess you just choose your favorite way!

But then I remembered the swift success I enjoyed with brioche (after many painful failed attempts prior to finding THIS blog last spring). Sadly, having decided to reformat this laptop last week, I lost all my saved bookmarks. The first patterns I tried left my new attempts as dismal as my very first while I searched in vain for one as comprehensible as described on this site.

I was also tearing my hair out trying to figure out instructions, when finally I noticed on a YouTube tutorial, that the woman in the video knitted quite differently to me...I mean she pulled the yarn over the left stitch when knitting in different way to the way I do. Someone once told me I knit 'like a German'! (I'm English, I live in Spain, but my American granny taught me to knit). Does anyone know if the regional variations are what causes the difficulties in 'getting' brioche?' <br /><br />One thing I still am having trouble with is that I always seem to end up with an extra YO at the end of a row. Anyone else have this problem? Anyway thanks so much for your post!!<br /><br />http://cavemum.wordpress.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
