What You Will Learn?

  • I this class I will take you through 4 Knitting Cast-On methods that range in skill from beginner to advanced!.
  • The four cast-on methods we will be going through are (in order of difficulty):.
  • (1) Backward Loop Cast-On.
  • (2) Knit Cast-On.
  • (3) Long Tail Cast-On.
  • (4) German Twisted Cast-On.
  • We will start by examining what each cast on looks like, and what are the best applications for each method. Next, we will go through how to work each of the cast-on methods. Each method starts with a slip knot (demonstrated in Lesson 2). .
  • Once we have summarized how to work each cast-on method, we will combine three of the cast on methods in the class project. For the class project we will work a cast on edge using both the Long-Tail Cast On and the German Twisted Cast-On, then work a button hole and cast-on stitches mid-row using the Backward Loop Cast-On. .
  • Lastly, in the Bonus! video I have answered the question - does the cast-on count as the first row?.
