You mean using double pointed needles, or two things at once, or two things on two circulars?

I've made double knitted things before, and its a bit confusing at first, but there are some epic youtube videos out there to show you along the way. Now, I love double knitting! and its very rewarding, and cleaner looking on things like scarves or blankets or other flat items. smile
