this is the ONLY video that has ever actually helped me to cast on 😅🙌🏼
Learning how to knit and just couldn't get the cast on till I saw this... made it so easy - thank you!
She is using circular needles, doing a “long-tail” cast on. You have to approximate the length of “tail” - according to the number of stitches you need. There are some formulas for this online - as a ball-park figure with a worsted or medium weight yarn, I usually measure out at least an inch per stitch, with maybe a few more to fudge it! With circular needles, the yarn/stitches just keep moving down the the connecting tube to eventually be able to wrap around in a circle after they are joined. Be sure that you use the length of needle you need for your pattern, so both the size of needle, like 5, 7, 10 - whatever is called for - plus the right length, such as 16”, 24”.
Your one comment here is more useful and clear than ALL the CZcams videos purporting to be tutorials. I thank you and hope that you have a channel or website we can all learn from. Thank you so much! 💓
@@TrulyJennyMorris WOW, I am so touched by your affirmation of my post! I learned the long-tail cast-on from my sister-in-law when she taught me to knit some years ago, so I credit her good teaching as much as anything! Even though I learned how some years ago, I sometimes feel very much a beginner when I branch out of my comfort zone, so I try to write the way I think through a project, step by step. So, no, I don’t have a channel or website, but I do occasionally post projects etc on my facebook and Instagram pages. Thank you again for your kind words - they inspire me to pull out one of those UFO’s and get knitting!
I can’t agree more with TrulyJennyMorris, this comment is better than all the blogs and videos I’ve ever read/watched on the topic. Thank you so much Donna!
This one helped to lead you in right direction, Thank you!!!
Thank you!!! This was the most helpful video I’ve seen yet. Straight to the point :)
I was struggling with this method until I saw this video. So grateful! Thank you.
Thank you for this video. You do it nice and slow so a beginner can follow. Very simple but perfect, thank you!
This video is so so so awesome. So often people talk so much you get distracted watching what they are doing. Then you get frustrated trying to figure it out. So easy thank thank thank you
Thank you so much.it’s the things that are supposed to be easy that will trip you up.thanks again.
Thank you so much this really helped!
Lovely! Thanks!
great job ......i had to slow it down to the max but got it, bless you.
THANK YOU
Thank you!!!
Instead of this weird music subtitles or a voice over would of been more helpful
I love the music.
What yarn is that? It looks so squishy
Thanks for being slow other videos were to fast for me I'm new at this
so the same way? do you just push it onto the "wire" part once the needle is full???
From what it looks like you’re using your tail yarn and knitting yarn to caste on and I apologize for the stupid question but does your tail yarn then get used up? I’m just so confused about casting on on circular needles and then continuing to knit with them. Should the tail and knitting yarn always be on the same needle when working with circular needles? Any explanation you could provide would be most helpful.
Hey I know It’s a year late and you’ve probably figured it out lol but yeah you use up your yarn tail when casting on. It should get shorter as you cast that way you don’t end up knitting a row with it on accident
I have the same question. I've run out of tail yarn and I am wondering what am I supposed to do now.
For anyone reading. You have to start with a longer tail depending on how many situ he's you are doing. There is another method where you tie on another ball of yarn and you can cast on like this as well.
Couldn't find an answer so I joined some knitting groups. I'll see if I can find links.
I know im a couple years later but I’m hoping you know the answer. What do I do with the left over of the tail ? Do I cut it or make another knot ? I keep getting it mixed up with the knitting side
Th as nk u so much
the music is annoying...
Confusing and the music didn't help.

This literally shows nothing about it being in the round except the needle that’s being used is a circular needle. This is just long tail cast on… 🙄
Agreed, and the thumbnail is misleading. What is the difference between the two images in the thumbnail? How do I join the first cast on stitch to the last one? Literally the reason I clicked on this video and it’s not here
super skow makes me even more confused
Music frustrating
what
Music is so annoying
Isn't that a pen 🤣😂😂😂😂
Not helpful
Wow this is TERRIBLE! Will find another video!
If you had only given instructions instead of the horrible music......😢
Stop with the goddamn music in these instructional videos!!!! Its distracting to new knitters.
And its TERRIBLE music
THE MUSIC!!! It's so annoying! If you don't want to speak, that's cool, but dead silence would be 1000% better.
