Description: The technique of Double Knitting produces a two-faced, negative-image fabric. This style of knitting has been simplified by the author to enable you to work both sides in a single pass. M'Lou's designs for coats, jackets, and shawls are all easily accessible through detailed charts as well as written instructions. A technical section along with a chapter of assorted practice items will help you fall into the rhythm of this type of hand-knitting.
Notes: Includes bibliographical references (page 157).
