Thank you, best tutorial about cast on I have ever seen

What difference does it make to the knitting if you don't use the thumb method for casting on your stitches

I love you

Whenever I do this I end up using yarn from the ball side instead of the tail. Any ideas on what I’m doing wrong?

[@debsagan8469]

So you use the ball end on your thumb and the tail on your index? Hard to see.

Why a long tail.? I only leave an inch
