Description
This group is for anyone interested in double knitting, for example, as described in Beverly Royce's out-of-print book "Notes on Double Knitting". Make glove fingers, mittens, socks and so on using two straight needles. Knit two socks on one set of double-pointed needles.
Are you knitting two layers at one time? For the purposes of this group, that's double knitting!
