In this easy-to-follow class, master knitter Edie Eckman provides you with all the skills you need to start double knitting. Since you are literally knitting both sides of fabric at the same time, this fun technique keeps you on your toes. Double knit fabric is reversible and cushy, with a design that looks different on each side. Edie demonstrates the basics to get you started, including options for holding the needles for both continental and English style knitters. She also shows you how to follow charts, building up reversible patterns in double-faced Stockinette stitch. Once you’ve got the hang of it, use the ideas presented here to make cute coasters, cowls, or a double-knit scarf (pattern and charts included in PDF).
