I’m not a knitter but this cast on method seems like a simple one to learn. Thank you for your demonstration. 💜🙏🏻

This is the first method that I learned and used for years. I just taught a friend this method and it is so timely to see this video now. Thanks for sharing. ❤

Just curious. Why do you prefer the long tail cast on method over this one? Thank you 😊

Quick question please: if I’m not a continental knitter, would I still need to twist the new stitch before putting it on my left needle? Thanks!
