This is my second attempt at "Double Knitting" I think it turned out better so I guess practice does improve things. The scarf is from Son of Stitch and Bitch. The lighter shade is unknown acrylic and the darker is Patons Decor.

Very good work, Dennis. A friend of mine used to double knit afghans, having learned to make them when she was young. Big afghans, mainly with her own designs. Lots of colors, too. I always enjoyed seeing her at AIDS prevention conventions, etc. as she'd be knitting and spreading the word about prevention and testing. Bless her.
