I have very little taste for knitting methods that slow me down - I like to romp to the end of a project while I am still enthusiastic about it - for me, double knitting would be a slow and painful death. A bit of a shame really, because a double knitted hat would be just the thing in Orkney (doesn't mean to say I'm going to try it though!) The general principle means that I avoid fair isle* as well, although I have a sneaking desire to attempt some twined knitting. The one place that I will<em> not</em> be going is the <em>knit-one-sock-inside-another</em> arena - which is practically the same as double knitting, I think - except not actually (intentionally at least) joined together. * "One day" I shall learn Continental and the art of knitting with one colour in each hand and then I may be better disposed to colour work. Good luck to you!

I also want to learn double knitting so maybe I'll do the hat that accompanies the tutorial. Like you I love Klemscott.
