Dot on Instagram: "Want to learn how to make colour work knitting, with no need to manage pesky floats? Look no further! Double knitting might be the perfect solution!

This creates lovely thick garments which can have gorgeous colourwork designs that are neat (and inversed) on each side, making it perfect for garments

Double knitting is a real game changer 📈 Save it for later! How to do it: • Knitting in the round? Do exactly as in the tutorial. • Knitting flat? Repeat the first row twice (knit the knit stitches, slip the purl stitches purlwise with yarn in front).

Double knitted scarves and cowls just launche
