Double knitting is a unique method of making a knitted fabric with no 'wrong' side. Significantly different from other colorwork methods, double knitting creates a pattern on both sides of the fabric with the colors reversed. In Part 3 of this 3-part series, you’ll learn to work decreases and increases in double knitting. You’ll put those decreases to work as you shape the crown of your hat.
