Branches and leaves shawl

Despite the long name, two-colour syncopated brioche is not as hard as you might think! This pattern contains only basic brioche stitches, two different brioche increases and three different brioche decreases, all of which are explain in the notes.

Starting from a few stitches, the shawl increases along one edge to form a triangle shape. The pattern is written using two full skeins of fingering weight yarn in contrasting colours (approximately 400m of each colour), however the size is easily adaptable to your gauge and weight and amount of yarn.

The pattern includes both written instructions and charts and has been tech edited and test knit. The sample pictured was knit with Circus Tonic Handmade Jubilee Sock yarn (75% wool, 25% nylon, 424m/100g) and Adagio Milla Alpaca 4ply (100% Alpaca, 160m/50g) but these may be substituted for any two yarns of similar weight.
