In this blog entry I will show you in detail how you can knit the letter “B” in double sided knitting. Usually, with double knitting the letter would show mirrored on the back side. I show you a method how you can make it show correctly on both sides. You can use the little square as a coaster or cleaning pad, or children could play “school” with it.
