Double Stockinette Stitch

Love the Stockinette Stitch, but hate the way it curls in all directions?  You might love to learn how to make the double stockinette stitch, a slip stitch knit pattern that creates a thick fabric that looks the same on both the right and wrong sides.

This pattern should not be confused with double knitting, but it is an easy alternative for beginners who want a thick, reversible pattern that is worked in a one row repeat of knit and slip stitches.  Perfect for those who hate to purl.
