Channel Island Cast on

[Celeritas2]

Fascinating cast on I had never heard of. Thanks for your great video. What sort of garments/items use this cast on?

@Celeritas2

traditionally for the cast on edge of a channel island gurnsey! Its a very stretch cast on and i frequently use is for socks, but its also nice on hat brims.. such a pretty edge to frame a face.

Great casting method, and WHAT THE HELL IS THAT KNOCKING?

[SeanOBrian55111]

@crebmo that is rather distracting isn't it?

[crebmo]

@SeanOBrian55111 yes, just random knocks throughout..

@crebmo I'm thinking that she lives under an Appalachian clogging school or a Jujiitsu dojo.

In either case the poor dear has probably been rendered nearly deaf; otherwise why would she not have re-recorded this without the annoying crashing sounds?

What a lovely tutorial! Very clear, and wow, you have a lovely speaking voice! Thanks so much - this looks like an excellent cast on. That's a great tip about extending the tail - very clover.

I want to second the comments of sunlightcreeps-- this was an amazingly clear and helpful demonstration. Thank you so much!!

[sunlightcreeps]

Thank you for showing it clearly, explaining it clearly, and anticipating problems and how to solve them. You are marvelous!

EXCELLENT. As a knitting instructor I'm always looking for "a better mousetrap"...this is one. Your pictures/shots are clean and your verbage is clear and concise. I will be recommending to all my students and watching your other offerings.

Thank you for this! I just spent 20 minutes with two excellent knitting books trying to figure this cast-on out, but it's just one of those things you have to see in person. After watching your video, I can see that I had it down about 95%, but your way is much cleaner than mine. Thanks so much!
