Double knitting is a special knitting technique that produces a double thickness fabric that can be reversible, but doesn’t have to be! We’ll knit a small coaster while learning a two-color cast on, the basics of double knitting, and a seamless bind off. Several coaster design options will be provided.
Prerequisite: Must know cast on, knit, purl, bind off, and basic decreases
Skill Level Required: Intermediate
Homework: None

There is no material fee for this workshop. The instructor will provide handouts.
Students must bring: Yarn: Worsted weight yarn in 2 contrasting colors, about 25g of each color, needles (straights or circulars) in size US 4 or 5 – or about 2 sizes smaller than you would typically use with worsted (We need a smaller needle than typical for worsted yarn – double knitting gauge tends to be very loose), stitch markers, and a tapestry needle.
We also suggest bringing a battery operated light should you need additional lighting.
