It's stretchier than other cast-ons and the steps are really just those of making a knit stitch.

I had such a hard time with casting on when I first started knitting and for a full year I often had to cast on for a project at least 2 or 3 times before I'd get the cast-on right and be able to move forward. <br /><br />I hope someone has referred you to this already, but in case they haven't, the videos at knittinghelp.com have helped me so much as I've learned new skills!Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15031366885885191512noreply@blogger.com
