New Brioche Videos

Just uploaded a couple of new videos to the Brioche Tutorials Page (see page links near the top of the blog just under the title banner).

Both videos are meant to help with the end of  round transition when knitting brioche in the round.  I know from comments here and on Ravelry, that this point creates some angst among knitters.  One reason is that on one of the rounds, you must end a row with a slip1 yarn over combination.  The next round is started with a slip 1 yarn over combo which seems like a very dysfunctional thing to do when knitting.  But it does work out. 

One video shows how to manage this transition when knitting with 2-colors and the other shows how to do it when using only one color.  I find the single color brioche rib in the round to be a bit more confusing than the 2-color, but that could just be me.

Happy to edit these if they aren't clear.  Also, if you have suggestions for more videos, I'd love to hear them.

Happy knitting
