I love this. It is clear, concise, and slow enough to really help. I'm so glad I found Stitch a Day videos. I am learning new stitches and methods all the time. Thank you very much!!

NewStitchADay - Other videos of this cast on method instruct that for the next 2 to 4 rows they knit the knits and slip the purls with yarn in front. Then they continue knitting the knits and purling the purls for as tall as they want the ribbing to be. Do you also do that? If so, I would suggest you make a 'Part 2' / 2nd video to demonstrate that. Also an answer here would be nice to know.

My problem is the first row starts with a Slip 1 and the stitches just fall off the needle??? How do I make this work???

@sadegur 4 жыл бұрын

Oh... I think I figured it out... the row starts with a S1 and then K1.... I had to bring the yarn behind to K1 instead of between the needles... it worked!!! Yay!!!

Interesting cast on - I like it! Is there a special cast off for this?

@stina-h 10 ай бұрын

There is, Italian cast off, it takes ages and ages and ages but the result is (mostly) worth it!

You quickly skimmed over that 'it's the wrong direction' part..... It would have been nice to know why it's important to have a specific direction there.

Worked through this carefully. It looks like yours, but when I go to knit the stitches, they kind of disintegrate on me. Suggestions?

I completely love.his chubby fingers. They don't look like they should work at knitting but they rock!

This is so bloody complicated! Why would a pattern call for this instead of normal cast on 😭😭😭

@susansays5627 3 жыл бұрын

Because it's much stretchier than a standard cast on, so it works well with ribbing :)

@adrianoadu1380 2 жыл бұрын

Because it’s the most stretchy and beautiful cast on you can have on ribbing!

It’s ok to be frustrated but remember to give yourself some grace when learning a new technique. Practice and you will eventually get it. The Italian cast on and bind off are some of my favorite methods for the nice rolled hem look it gives necklines, cuffs, and hems.

The video shows how to do the cast on. It does not show how to knit it as the title leads you to believe.

bkallima Exactly!!!

Because it's just the cast on. You can knit any cast on, really. If you want to learn to knit, you have a lot more videos to watch. But for this one, it's a 1x1 rib cast on. Knit the knits and purl the purls.

This is not Italian cast on. Not sure what is cast on is but NOT italian.

@beth12svist 2 жыл бұрын

What do Italian people do, then? :-) The names in foreign languages are often misleading this way. Like French fries aren't really French and bohemian people aren't from Bohemia...
