                Cast On Techniques

                Kyle William is pleased to offer this selection of video tutorials focused on various cast on techniques.  Feel free to watch and share them with your friends!  Techniques featured in this series are based on the right-handed English (or throwing) style knitting, where for the most part the working yarn is held in the right hand.  Have a particular technique you'd like demonstrated?  Send an EMAIL.  Thanks for visiting!

                Casting On: Double Cast-on

                One of the easiest methods of casting on; this is my favorite to teach those who are just beginning to knit.  Provides a firm, elastic edge.  This technique is similar to the German (or long tail) cast on.

                Casting On: Knitting-on

                Another great cast on method; this technique includes the steps necessary for the knit stitch, so it's another good "first" cast on technique. 

                Casting On: Twisted German Cast-on

                A lovely flexible cast-on, the twisted German cast-on is similar to long tail, but the added step adds stretch to the edge.  This is a great method for ribbing, socks, gloves, cuffs, or anywhere that a bit of movement in the edge is desired.
