A Lesson in Double Knitting

Despite my near five years experience in knitting, I really don't have that much actual skill to show for it, other than being able to knit a bad ass hat and some toys.  Which, is good, it's more than some people can do... my friend Phil can only knit square or rectangle things still...

So, the project I took on for this week seemed challenging enough, and was directly translated into a swap project!  DOUBLE KNITTING.  I know...scary for a novice knitter, but not so much for me!  I referred to several different sites to get the help I needed.  First up, was one of my favorite go-to sites for any knitting predicament I find myself in, called, of course, Knitting Help!  Here's a link to their double knitting video, but there's lots of free videos available there to look at and refresh on or learn something new!

Second, and a bit more detailed on how exactly to start and everything is this nice site I just Googled and found.  The power of Google is great!!
