Double Knitting Patterns

There are times in any knitter’s life when a good double knit is called for, whether to try something different, or to simply create a nice present for a friend. Fortunately, all of the major brands, and many smaller companies, offer a great selection of double knitting patterns.

No matter a person's taste or the current trend, there will always be suitable double knitting patterns. Ideally, these will be well designed and presented, allowing knitters of any age and any skill level to make a garment or accessory that is both stylish and a practical.

Great definition and high quality is something that a Sublime double knit offers, for example, though this will not come as much of a surprise to those mindful that the company’s yarns offer great quality and definition too. Similarly, Hayfield, King Cole and Stylecraft are all excellent for the double knit.

For those looking for the assurance of familiarity, together with utmost quality, there is always Sirdar of course. As perfect for the novice as for the professional, this company seems to put every year of its 130 year existence into everything it produces. An excellent example of this is its Wash 'n' Wear double knitting yarn.

Whether knitting for the children, or the adults of the household, double knit fabric designs can be wonderful. This is particularly the case for cardigans, boleros, sweaters and jumpers of course, but there are also some wonderful designs for double-knit jackets, scarves and many accessories.

Here at Black Sheep Wools, we are pleased to offer our customers a range of more than 700 double knitting patterns. Priced from just £1, and with most under £3, the only problem that our knitters face is reducing their shortlist.
