Thank you for the clear, easy-to-follow tutorial. This is a beautiful cast on -- adds just the right touch of interest to an otherwise plain stockinette-stitch hat.

Excellent! I know of a stretchy bind off but I wasn't sure if there was a stretchy cast on like it. This is the first time I hear of this cast on. Awesome! Thanks.

Another FANTASTIC tutorial! I've always liked the tubular cast on, but have used a very tedious and complicated method (crochet chain with half of the number of stitches, knitting 4 rows, fold and knit 1st row from two needles. ) this wil take no time at all!!! Thanks again... 😊

A lovely cast on, is there a bind off that matches it?

@10rowsaday 5 жыл бұрын

So far I haven't come across a matching bind off. I'll keep looking :-)

I'm learning to knit socks and this is a terrific cast on option. Thank you for sharing it. One question...When I get all my stitches on my circular needle I end up with the working end of the yarn and what is left of the loop (two strands), essentially three strands (plus a fourth end that will be woven in later). What do you do with the loop that is left when you join your stitches to start your first circular row? The only solution I can think of is to weave it in but then you have a looped end. Would you cut it so you actually have three strands to weave in or just leave it as a loop? HELP! :-)

@10rowsaday 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Anne. It is not fully clear to me what you mean by a "looped end", but you are right - this method produces a lot of ends. Once you cast on all stitches, you will have a certain number of stitches on the needles, plus a single yarn tail that was created when you folded yarn at the very beginning, plus a double yarn tail that you used when you cast on stitches, plus, of course, the working yarn. When you start working in the round, use the working yarn and ignore all tails for now. You will weave in those three strands when the sock is finished. Happy knitting :-)

Is it possible to use this for a hat where the brim is turned back?

@10rowsaday 4 жыл бұрын

This cast on looks nice on both sides, so yes, it will work for a hat with a folded brim. Happy knitting :-)

Is there a matching bind off method for the Bulgarian cast on?

@10rowsaday 5 жыл бұрын

It is probably possible to make a bind off similar to this cast on, but so far I haven't come across a way to do it. I'll keep looking :-)

I would like to know how to bind off the same way because I know it's possible with a sewing needle, but I don't know how. I saw it done by a grandmother in Bulgaria but she's dead now. I never found it on Internet.

@10rowsaday 4 жыл бұрын

It seems that the sewn bind off should do the trick. Happy knitting :-)

@aqb1179 2 жыл бұрын

I like this cast on BUT like many videoed tutorials you go much too fast after the first demonstration.....people who are learning something new generally need to SLOWLY repeat what they are learning. Showing it once in slow motion then whizzing off at normal speed is really annoying....I have to keep stopping and replaying the first demo off the even and odd method because the subsequent footage is far too fast to follow. Why do so many teachers do this???

@10rowsaday 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Allison. I'm sorry the demonstration was too fast for you. Believe it or not, I often get comments that my videos are too slow. It is hard to make everyone happy, but I found a way that suits most viewers - I show one sequence in a slow motion, and then I continue at normal pace. You can always slow down any video when you click the "gear" icon at the right bottom corner of the video and change the playback speed from normal to a slower or a faster one. Happy knitting.

That is what’s so great about these videos, you can watch them as often as you need. Also, you can slow them down if you need.
