@IsRasna You work until you are almost out of yarn, then bind off in the traditional manner--knit two, pass first st over, knit one, pass stitch over, etc. Then I pulled the end of the yarn through the last loop to secure it and just kind of worked the left over tail into the last row and just made sure it wouldn't fall out. The scarf was so ruffly the end wasn't noticeable.
I am waiting for the frill seeker yarn to come back in stock. I want to make these for my granddaughters. looks like such fun. I am afraid the beginning and end will unravel so I think I will do something else. not sure what yet. one girl folded it over a couple of times before she took her first stitch. I may try that. thanks for your help.
Hi, All! I just finished my first one a couple of days ago. I folded over the beginning and the end of the scarf material so the raw ends were more hidden. I matched the holes and used the doubled over netting as one. I
then took a matching pearl cotton and kind of stitched the string ends up even more after I finished it. I imagine sewing thread would also work, just double the thread. I like it better than leaving the rough ends out.
@casagrandecats Yes, just slip the loops onto your needle, no need to try working a traditional cast on.
I started fairly close to the end so the ruffles drooped down and hid the little tail end that was left. Then I just kind of tucked it up inside rather than trying to weave it.
I'm on scarf number 8 now! I have also tried most of the other Katia wools but there seems to be a countrywide shortage, managed to order some on line today.
What is the name of the knitting needles you are using? I've never seen a set like that and I'm in the market for a new one.

@alexisluvsmovies01 Hi Alexis! I'm using a set of Denise Interchangable needles. You can probably find them at your local yarn store.

How do you bind off since there's no tail?

so you just slip the stitches on for your first row? what did you do with the raw edge?

@suedavies2003 It's the end of March now. I've heard Triana and Rizos are back in stock and shipping to local yarn stores across the US. :-)
