I’ve always thought this was better than long tail because you don’t have to guess-timate how much tail to leave. ❤

60 years ago when I was taught to Knit This was the Only Way to Cast On, a basic cast on and Everyone was a English Style knitter only it didn’t have a name back then. Anyone that knitted in the 60’s 70’s and 80’s casted on the same way, and knitted the same way, now Both techniques have a Name! 😊

Funny how what was old is new again, just like hanging laundry outside,or using a basket for groceries. It makes me laugh the new generation think they have invented something we have never learned or heard of before. 🇨🇦

I learn long tail 60 years ago… probably had to do with where you learn

My Danish grandma taught me 60 years ago - Continental, but with a stationary left needle.

Just because information wasn’t made available to you, doesn’t mean it wasn’t there or didn’t exist. This is an ignorant world view - “it didn’t happen for me, so it didn’t happen” 😅

Yes!!!! 60 years ago my auntie showed me this way!!!! For years it was my favorite cast on. ❤boy, where has the time gone!!!!

This is the first cast-on I learned so many years ago !

Yes, that’s the only way I was taught to knit 50/55 plus years ago. It didn’t have a name then either. I also knit with my long straight needle placed under my right armpit. I have since been told that is the Yorkshire way of knitting. As I am from Yorkshire I found that very interesting. Love these tips and trick you give us Stephen.

I also learned with a stationary left needle held under my armpit. My Danish Grandmother taught me. Boy, could she knit fasr!

This is the first cast on that I learned from my mum, when I was 7yrs old. It's a good one.😉

I Love This Cast On For Underarms. And It's Super Clean! Thanks Stephen! 💙

I appreciate your videos! It's great that you offer different ways of casting on. No more guesstimating, no more running out of yarn three stitches before your needed stitch count.

This is an excellent tutorial on the knitted cast on. Love those Addi needles too! Thanks for sharing. 🤗🤗

Oh this is so much easier than the long tail!! Thank you!! Wish that I had learned this years ago!

omg thank you so much. I've tried watching other visual guides and keep messing up, your style was a game changer for me.

This is the cast-on I learned when I learned to knit in about 1974, and the only one I used for years!

I needed a refresher on the knit cast on and this was perfect-clear in every way and exactly what I needed! New fan here!

@terry_679 Жыл бұрын

Cool, I just might give knitting another try ! 😎

@Alfie198 9 ай бұрын

Definitely the easiest way to cast on. I have been using this method for the past 50 years.

@Jenjursnap Жыл бұрын

I WAS a die-hard long tail fan. However, unless a pattern requires some other cast on to create a certain edging, this is now and forever the only way I'll cast on!!

@brendabenninger6097 11 ай бұрын

Wow! This is such an easy cast on method compared to how I was taught. I've crocheted for about 30 years and just recently learned to knit. But, sometimes it's hard to figure out how to move the needles and yarn. Thanks for this tip!!

When I work the Knitted Cast-on I go up one or two needle sizes to keep it from being too tight when I work the first row.

When would you do this cast on vs. the cable cast on? Or is it interchangeable with any other cast on?

@claramontero8469 11 ай бұрын

Hola alguien me podia decir si existe alguna posibilidad de traducir lo que dice en español, no tengo ni idea de ingles , viendo lo que hace lo entiendo, peto seguro que pietdo mucha informacion, gracias

@lydiabearham6025 Жыл бұрын

I’ve noticed some folks stick the needle between the stitches, not into the stitch. Is one better than the other?

@vivianpowell1732 Жыл бұрын

I believe that is called the Cable Cast-on, slightly different from the Knitted Cast-on.

@devoted2knit177 Жыл бұрын

Is the knitted cast on stretchy at all?

@StephenWest Жыл бұрын

A little bit but if you want it stretchier then you could cast on with one or two needle sizes larger and then switch to your smaller needle after the cast on is complete.
