Learn the magic of knitting both sides of fabric at the same time. This fun technique creates a double-layer reversible fabric with smooth knit stitches facing on both sides. Double knitting is fantastic for colorwork and contrasting colors with bold designs. The fabric is stretchy, since there are not long floats, like in stranded colorwork. Learn how to follow charts, build reversible patterns, and beautiful two-color braided cast-on and cast-off.
