#Double Knit

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! 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 😅 #knitting #knit #wip #howtomake #craft #knit

If you want to make cosy, completely reversible colourwork with no floats but are struggling with following double knit patterns, let me share with you my tips and tricks! (To note, this is for mirrored double knitting. You can make different patterns on each side, but that is much more complex and not covered in this video as I haven’t yet dared to attempt it! 😅) One of the great things about double knitting is that as the image shows on both sides, it doesn’t matter so much which is the right side and which is the wrong side, you can kind of choose that when you make it. The only thing to watch out for is that the wrong side will be a mirror image, so particularly if your design has text make sure the colour way you want on the front is the right side! DETAILS OF PROJECTS SHOWN 💖 Patterns shown here are the over the garden wall scarf by @katharina.kuntz and the Twilight inspired scarf by me (not yet released). My main projects use Cascade 220 fingering weight wool (regular, not super wash) on 2mm needles. The demo is using Drops Air on 5mm needles Happy knitting! ❤️‍🔥 #knitting #knit #craft #twilight #scarf #overthegardenwall #tutorial #howto

Double knitting Have you ever tried double knitting and been frustrated by having to move the yarns back and forth after every single stitch? Double knitting creates two layers of fabric. When knitted in two colours, each layer has the same pattern, but the colours are reversed. The main principle of this technique is to knit the stitch of the front layer with one colour while holding the other yarn in the back and purling the stitch of the back layer with the second colour while holding the other yarn to the front. That way the yarns will not interfere with each other and there will be no strands on the outside of the work. #knitting #knittersofinstagram #knittingaddict #knitstagram #knittinglove #yarn #handknit #knittinginspiration #knittersgonnaknit #nevernotknitting #knit #knittingtutorial #knittinglessons #knittingtips #knittingvideos #knittingclass #learntoknit #knittinghelp #breien #Stricken #strik #tricot #sticka #strikning #strikk #tejer #tricô #neuloosi #Stickning #örgü

Double knitting (Continental style). Now that’s definitely NOT a meditative knitting - I haven’t been so stressed while knitting in a while. But looks pretty! ▪️ Working on #testknit of #dianasbandana for @ozetta with @purlsoho Linen Quill in Super Orange and Fresh Nutmeg. ▪️ #yarnlove #testknitting #testknit #xyzbca #linenyarn #knittinglove #doubleknitting #linenscarf #knittersoftheworld
