You can knead dough multiple times and let it rest in the refrigerator between. I do this to make a bread with a less tough crust and finer crumb.

Keep it covered and don't let it sit too long as described in How long can I keep bread dough in the refrigerator?

    Thanks. So just to clarify, after kneading i can put it in fridge overnight for first rise, correct? Then i take it out of fridge, shape it into balls and i can place it in fridge again overnight for 2nd proofing before baking next day, and this will be ok? – Molly May 31 '20 at 22:18
