DOWant 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!
Double knitting is a deceptively simple technique in which you knit two pieces of fabric back to back at the same time, alternating between working on each side with every stitch. This creates lovely thick garments which can have gorgeous colourwork designs that are neat (and inversed) on each side, making it perfect for garments like scarves where both sides are on show!
I’ve been offline for a bit as I had a nasty pneumonia which has taken a long time to recover from, but I’ve been asked for more detail on how I double knit for ages so figured I would come back with my most requested video!
In this one I am working on the Adventures of Family Fox scarf pattern which I was very kindly #gifted by @katharina.kuntz (whose Over The Garden Wall scarf pattern also features).
I’m making it for my husband for Christmas and currently have about 400 rows left to do- do you think I’ll make it in time?? Anyone else hitting the gift-knitting panic season?? 😅
Also pls excuse the slightly cut off end, I had to cut it to under 3 mins for reels 😅
