KnitWit 180: Casting On part 1

Filed under: podcast — Autumn Breeze at 8:04 pm on Sunday, August 29, 2010

It is a knitting episode just like Melinda asked for!!!

Since I have been all about new beginnings lately, I thought we should talk about casting on.  I was rather surpriced I hadn’t talked about this already… maybe I have and forgot but I couldn’t find anything when I did a search.

This week I cover 6 cast-ons.

1. Half Hitch

2. Long Tail

3. Knit/Purl

4. Knitted

5. Cabled

6. Crocheted(two variations)

These are all cast-ons for going in one direction.  Next mod5=0, I will talk about circular and provisional cast-ons.

I hope to figure out how to edit video and put some clips demostrating the different cast-ons.  Once I do that, I will link the clips for you to watch.

If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Hi!
I just listened to you for the first time. I was interested to hear your instructions for cast ons. Very clear and I will bookmark the episode for future reference. I will now go and catch up with your fiction, sounds good!
