Frequently asked questions
How do I count the brioche row gauge?
The stated 48 worked rows correspond to 24 visible knit stitches vertically. Counting only visible stitches as worked rows would give the wrong gauge.
Are Sunday and Tynn Peer Gynt used together?
Choose one of those main yarns, then hold one strand with one strand of Tynn Silk Mohair. Buy the two components separately for your chosen option.
