2 Color Patterned Double Knitting with One Yarn at a Time (slip stitch double knitting)
I am struggling with the ends of my rows. I have not double knitted the conventional way so I am getting a hole on the sides. How do I prevent this with your method
A hole at the sides usually means you aren't twisting the two colors together when you change from one side of the work to the other. Without a twist, there will be a gap from the edge of the work until the first color change in the pattern. You can leave sides open on purpose for a dowel rod, as I did with my Nittany Lion Banner here: www.ravelry.com/projects/Jolie/penn-state-banner. But if you want the sides closed, make sure the first stitch on the new row "catches" or "traps" the other color as it turns to head back down the row.
If I could keep on clicking the 'Thumb Up' for this video, I would do it every time I watch it. This is the best technique I have ever learned in knitting, and the explanation and demo are clear that is so easy to follow. Thank you very much.
Very good explanation. Fantastic! 😀
Can I use the same way to blind off on purl stitches? Thank you in advance for your answer.
If the RS row ends with purl stitches, the technique doesn’t work quite as well. Trapping a carried yarn involves carrying it on the purl side of the work. If the purl side is the public side, then the carried yarn is trapped to the public side, which isn’t pleasing. If there is a way to trap to the knit side of the work, I don’t yet know it.
@@jolieknits9393 Thank you.
St begins 0:34
So clear. I can finally do this type of bind off thanks to you. Took me many (oh so many) attempts but I was determined to succeed. And I did. Thanks again 😊
Omg this is amazing!
Merci, j'adore ce point qui a beaucoup de relief !
Does this work with an odd number of stitches? I guess im asking do you have to end on a trap?
🌟❤this 🥳ty so much!!!🎉🦋🎊
I am trying to learn this technique. I have a simple houndstooth, 4 st, 4 row pattern. After I have worked the first row two times, do I go to second row for reverse side and do I start the pattern at the left of the chart? Do I reverse the colors on the second side of the knitting? Thank you.
Yes, you understand! If you are working back and forth, the obverse ("right side") row takes two passes, one with each color. When you turn the work over, now the reverse ("wrong side") row takes two passes, one with each color. Yes, you read the chart left to right on the reverse row. Here's the catch. On the reverse row, the color in the chart is the purl stitch not the knit stitch. It's like reading a knit-purl pattern back-and-forth on a chart and having to remember on the wrong-side row that the purl is a knit and the knit is a purl. Because that messes with my brain, I instead think "match or not match." If the next stitch in the chart matches the one in the row below, then match the pair on the needles - i.e. work that knit-purl pair in the same colors. If the next stitch in the chart doesn't match the stitch in the previous row, then I work the pair in the opposite colors. (This same trick works in a lot of other chart-reading circumstances.) Please let me know if this makes sense. Your reversible knitted houndstooth sounds like a pretty fabric! Happy knitting!
I’m making progress. Thank you.
mam, that's gebius❤
I really appreciate your video! I was so lost as to what to do in the shawl pattern I’m doing. Thank you!
Every knitter should be taught this! I've been knitting for 50+ years and only just discovered this!!!!! It has always bothered me having that extra row of knitted stitches.
To me it's truly a challenge. May this new level becomes viral
I agree. This method is not fast. And Fox Paws is challenging anyway. This is definitely a stunt knit!
thank you so much for the tip!
Thank you so much! All I’ve done so far is just watch it, I haven’t done it yet, although it seems like it’ll be easy to follow. This will help a lot because I’m following a horse knitting pattern and this video was in the helpful links section and I was confused because it said to cast off in the beginning of the row and at the end as well, and I didn’t know how that would work because the working yarn would be all the way at the end. But now I understand. Thanks!
Nice. Is it easier than actually fox paw pattern.
Thanks!
thankyou madam
Thank you so much. You tought very easily. It's so useful for me.
If I need to cast off at the end of the row I normally just cast off and then rejoin the yarn to the part I need to continue, but decided to give this a go to learn something new.. made it even more difficult for myself because I was working a purl row 😅 but got there in the end! I ended up just twisting the two strands of yarn to trap the one that needed to be trapped as I couldn’t work out how to do it by placing it over the needle 🤷🏻♀️
I've been struggling to solve this, you just saved me so much time! Thank you!
what do you mean by “twisting the two strands of yarn”? I’m having that same problem right now as I’m not able to decipher how to trap the yarn on a purl row😔😔
This is exactly what I was looking for, and SO CLEAR. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
This might have been the most frustrating thing I´ve ever done, I got it wrong like 25 times but I finally figured it out! Thank you!
Clever!
Please 🙏 tell me I'm not crazy this repeat can work in the round!?!
It is my sincere belief that this pattern can work IN THE ROUND AS well as FLAT!!!! e.g., if i did a two color Longtail c.o. then (i love smart patent brioche), both colors across at once....i can incorporate
Your pattern in the same both going across on one round what do you think?
Jolie, my suggestion is merely an idea that came to me while watching your video. I think you are essentially looking for a camshaft/crankshaft-type design for doing the 2/2 twill. Use a square stick instead of rod. It will be easier to figure out what you want. As you know the sequence for the 2/2 is 1+2, 2+3, 3+4, and 1+4. This means you would "walk" the deeper cuts across the stick. First, mark the stick on all four sides to indicate where the grooves should go. Then, label the sides 1,2,3,4 or A,B,C,D. Now each side will have two deep grooves and two shallow grooves. So, with the stick in Position 1 (facing up) for the 1+2 (raised warp), starting on the left side, cut two shallow notches at the first and second marks. The two deeper grooves at the 3&4 marks. Rotate the stick 90 degrees and make the notches and grooves pattern shifted to the right one line. Continue until the stick is finished. Get your woodworking friend to help you. I hope this works. If it does, the 1/3 twill will be the basic idea: notch 1, groove 3, rotate, shift to the right, notch 1, groove 3 and so on.
I like your idea! I wonder if it might be possible to weave patterns beyond tabby using two heddle bars? I haven't experimented yet. I need to improve my woodworking skills. Thank you!
@@jolieknits9393 , thank you for the feedback. I hope it works.
Can you make a video doing this "One more Below" As one pass brioche or can you describe # of stitches cast on and set up????
There's more information about this pattern on my blog here: jolieaelder.blogspot.com/2009/07/net-pattern-simplified-with-video.html If you have Nancy Marchant's *Knitting Brioche* book, this is the two-color honeycomb pattern at the top of page 127. It is a two-stitch pattern. Cast-on an even number of stitches. This pattern can be worked over an odd number of stitches, too! If you are accustomed to the yarn forward slip and yarn over method of brioche - which is the one favored by Stephen West - this pattern is a little different. You'll make the yarn overs on one pass. On the next pass you don't bark or burp them. Instead, you knit or purl in the stitch underneath the the yarn over and slip the yarn over. Now you have two stitches with a yarn over above them, rather than one stitch with a yarn over above it. I'll be teaching brioche at the The Knitting Guild Association online conference in April 2023. tkga.org/conference/ Coincidentally, I've been updating my brioche handout this week! I usually cover this technique in my Brioche Rosetta Stone class. However, for TKGA the class is only 2 hours not 3. I don't yet know if I will have time to include this, as it is uncommon.
@@jolieknits9393 say if you did dark and light simultaneously can you describe? In your video you do it partially. What is your set up row?
@@sabrahardy Ok, here's the description: For this particular pattern, there is a set-up row. Cast on using the background-color. In my example, that's dark. Set-up: Using net color (light color), work a wrong-side row of knit all (which creates a row of purls on the right side of the fabric). Over an even number of stitches the pattern is - Row 1 (RS): Using net color, alternate knit 1, knit 1 more below. Slide work to other end of needle without turning. Row 2 (RS): Using background color, alternate purl 1, purl together a stitch with its yarn over. Turn work. Row 3 (WS): Using net color, alternative purl 1, purl 1 more below. Slide work to other end of needle without turning. Row 4 (WS): Using background color, alternate knit 1, knit together a stitch with its yarn over. Turn work. Repeat those 4 rows for pattern. To end pattern, bind off in pattern on row 2 or row 4. I haven't sat down to figure out how to work it in the round. These directions might not be correct. I would try: Using dark background color, cast on an even number of stitches and join in the round. Set up: using light net color, purl one round. Then I'd try: Round 1: Using net color, alternate knit 1, knit 1 more below. Round 2 : Using background color, alternate purl 1, purl together a stitch with its yarn over. Round 3: Using net color, alternate knit 1 more below, knit 1. Round 4: Using background color, alternate purl together a stitch with its yarn over, purl 1. I've never tried working "one pass" brioche where you work both colors on one round. I've done that with double-knitting. I thought part of why people liked brioche was you could get pretty color patterns without having two yarns in your hands at the same time? I will need to investigate one pass brioche. Please reply whether or not the in the round directions work.
That's great !!! Thank you so much....I was really looking for this solution..
👍
Could this same “yarn trapping” approach be used for “reverse shaping” to avoid having an extra row on one side of the garment? But the difference would be moving stitches to a stitch holder rather than casting off. Example to form a yoke on a baby bunting (stockinette stitch): Right front says to: K10, leave these 10 sts on st holder, K17, turn P17, turn K4, leave these 4 sts on same st holder (18 sts on holder), K13 turn P13, turn There are a few more rows to the shaping but let’s use this much. When working the left front to “correspond to the right front on the remaining stitches” could I: K17, set up “number 4” yarn trapping loop, K last 10 sts trapping yarn, turn Pull trapped yarn through, leave first 10 sts on st holder, P17, turn K13, set up yarn trapping loop, K last 4 sts trapping yarn, turn Pull trapped yarn through, leave first 4 sts on st holder (18 stitches on holder), P13 turn Etc. Thank you.
Yes, I think you have exactly the right idea. I'm typically using this for a bind-off, but you could use the trapping trick to leave live stitches. If binding off, I normally work the trapping stitches a bit looser. If you are parking them to use later, then work them at normal tension.
Thank you! This is so helpful!
So interesting! How do you handle this when you come to a corner in the base piece you are adding the edging to?
I have a blog post here: jolieaelder.blogspot.com/2020/04/a-corner-turn.html. The easiest way to work a corner turn is to do some short rows. Pull up a loop, work out and back, work out and back again without pulling up a loop, and then pull up a loop in the same place and work out and back. Usually that extra fullness will get you around the corner. You might have to experiment a bit to find the optimal solution. Does that help?
@@jolieknits9393 More than helps! Thank you!
Thank Mam idea show us bless you
After a lot of searching, this is exactly what I needed!! Super, super video and instructions! Thank you!

Hi Jolie, I obtained a copy of Jane Neighbors book, Reversible 2 color knitting. Interesting. She speaks of Solid 2color opposite reversible (??) where 4rows are colors light, dark, light, row 1, dark, row 2. 1 n 2 are the same k1 sl 1 yif turn, and rows 3 n 4 are the same s1 yib, p1, slide. Variation in changing the order of the rows to, 1,3, 4, 2, ..2 rows light color, 2 rows dark color. Why, I say, the variation? Brain block. Wish u wld come up to Wisconsin. Really like to follow ur train of thot in person, in a class. Thanks.
Ah, I've never had a chance to read Jane Neighbors' book. I believe Wisconsin has a sheep and wool festival? Maybe I'll need to fill out an application? :-)
Thank you.
Thanks :)
I love that technique! Thank youu. What if I want to make the hole really large, like a few rows, how would you go about that? (:
Hmmm. The easiest way to get bigger holes with the technique I'm demonstrating here is simply bind off way more stitches - 11, 13, 15. Cornellia Tuttle Hamilton had a Craftsy class called "Innovative Openwork Scarves," but I don't see it listed anymore. She has patterns listed on Ravelry, such as this one: www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/fernanda-cowl. If you search her scarf patterns you'll see a bunch of unusual projects that might fit your design aspirations!
I finally get it!! THank you!
You are amazing!!! I am going to use this technique for a sweater that I am making!!! Thank you so much!!
Hi Jolie, to hve a bit of color work do I use either K st and P st, or?? Altho instead of thinking THT way, good gravy, my goal is creating opposite color. 😆 Yayyyyy!!! 🤍🤗 But jump in n tell me anythg u might.
Hopefully you have your colorwork charted out? In my example here, I've worked the fabric so you'll see knit stitches on both sides, although the fabric is essentially 1×1 ribbing worked in two colors. If you want to use this slipped-stitch technique, put stitch markers in between every color change. Then work knit and slip OR slip and purl, depending on what you need to match your chart. Knit then slip matches the color on the chart. Slip then purl is what you do when the color you are using does not match the next box on the chart. And don't forget it is the other-way round when you work the "wrong side" reverse rows coming back. I think it is probably easier to do this technique if you already know the standard double-knitting with both colors at once technique. Your question does bring up the issue of textured double-knitting. That would be a more advanced technique but it could be done with this work-and-slip or slip-and-work method.
For some reason, this method of double knitting is much easier for me now. Whether it’s that it’s harder for my increasingly arthritic hands to carry two colors at once with good tension or that this method reminds me very much of linen stitch (which I love to do) but with the carryovers on the interior of the piece. Thank you very much and for your way of showing and explaining the method.
Oh my god! I was planning to do a double knitted illusion knitting piece for an art class and didn't know where to start. Thank you so much!
Glad I could help! If you do regular double-knitting in this technique, you'll end up with a soap sack, pillow case, or sleeping bag. Please come back and post a link to your finished project!
I watched this technique explained by PurlSoho and it made so much more sense when you did it! Thank you!
You are very welcome! I hope you make something beautiful in double-knitting!
Loving the vids. Keep up the good work! Why don’t you use promosm?! It will help your videos rank higher in the search results.
Have considered monetizing. But I know how annoyed I am when there's an advertisement in the middle of a demonstration. Am trying to figure out how to create a universal end screen where I could link to my blog, pattern store, and upcoming shows. I'm better at knitting and teaching than I am at technology or capitalism.
Brilliant! I came here via Pinterest/your blog because I was looking for a symmetrical mesh pattern - thank you for figuring it out and sharing!
Great Video!!!! After watching it, and learning that the notches were made half way the cylinder, and alternating at 90 degrees, I went to the hardware store, bought a 3 foot long, 1 inch diameter wood stick, and with my Dremmel tool, made every notch 4 mm apart, all the way for 30 inches, starting and ending at two inches from each end, and is working like a charm in the loom I got from Ikea!!!! My next adaptation for that loom is to have both sides rotary so I can weave long strips. For shuttles, I am using my tatting metal shuttles that have interchangeable bobbins so I can have different colours and thread sizes and types. Thanks a lot!!!!!
Thanks for this, this is exactly what I'm looking for! Currently have a stick in for one shed and am "weaving" between each warp string to go back. I can't find any sellers in Europe so have to make one.
