The products I show in the video:
Knitter’s Pride 8″ DPNs
Tulip Bamboo Interchangeable Set
Addi Click Bamboo Set
My nail polish is Gelish “It’s a Lily”.

In this video, I demonstrate a technique that looks a lot like two-color brioche stitch, but is a bit easier to work. The written instructions are available as a FREE RAVELRY DOWNLOAD, and include directions for both flat and in-the-round.

Addi Natura Bamboo Interchangeable needles
