Two-colour brioche is a lovely way to combine colours to form interesting patterns and lovely textures. For this scarf foreground and background colours are switched within a row to create a bold graphic effect. It is knitted on a bias.
Please note that this is NOT a beginner pattern – it assumes that you already know how to knit two-colour brioche.

I love how the two-colour brioche creates such a bold, graphic diamond effect, especially with the colours switching within a row. The blue and light combination looks striking, and knitting it on the bias gives the scarf such an elegant drape. Thank you for sharing the detailed notes on the stitches and yarn choices.

LöschenThat bold diamond effect is exactly what caught my eye too — two-colour brioche really does make the pattern pop, especially with the semi-solid against the solid you chose. The 25% discount until November 7 is a nice nudge as well, but honestly the short photo tutorials for the brioche stitches are what would win me over, since increases and decreases in brioche always trip me up. Beautiful work, and a scarf that looks far more complex than the techniques suggest.
