  • Pretty simple vid on cast off. I like it since the lighting is bright. and the casting off is done really slowly. Making it really easy to see what's going on. I am almost done with my project and so binding off is way important to know how to do now.

  • Perfect! Very clear and easy to follow!!!

  • ya......... but what do u do with the tail?

  • thank you so much! I'm knitting a scarf for my mom for Christmas and you helped me so much! THANK YOU!!!

  • clearest video in youtube:)

  • Well-done video. Just have one question: Is the BO always knit rather than pearl? Wondering because am in a stockinette pattern (for purse flap); the previous row is "BO 4, k remaining stiches" and the current row is "BO 4, p remaining stitches."

  • This was very helpful thank you very much for doing this video

  • yay! thank u so much!

  • Thank you so much! This helped a bunch with my boyfriend's present :P

  • @lilross97 You can weave it in. Get a small-ish crochet needle (depending on how loose your knitting is), take part of the string, and weave it in. It's best to go in the direction that you were knitting so it looks like it was meant to be that way. I've seen a few videos on here that explain how to do it. Just search on YouTube "knitting weaving in ends" and you should find something that will help you. Good luck!

  • I love this video thank you so much for making this. It's slow and brightly lit so i could understand it.

  • Wow that looks a lot easier than I thought it'd be =D thanks a million !
