Comments: This stitch is why I love the internet. As you saw in earlier posts, I was using the Brioche Stitch website to try out a number of different brioche stitches. When I tried this one, I couldn't make it work - something in the pattern just wasn't right. So I emailed Nancy Marchant, the author of the site, and 2 days later she emailed me back! At first it looked like she wasn't going to be able to review and revise her pattern, but not 4 days later, there it was in my inbox! Thanks so much Nancy! This pattern is reverse-engineered from a sweater worn by Elvis - you can see a photo if you click the link above. But be warned - as of my writing this (Jan 1/12), the pattern on the site is not yet the correct version. Please email Nancy if you want a copy - I don't have the rights to distribute the pattern!
