How to Knit : How to Cast On in Knitting

Repeat the cast on stitch in knitting until the desired number of stitches is reached with instructions from an experienced knitter in this free video on knitting.

Wow, I can actually do this one, and she repeats the crucial parts. Yay! Most of these videos are too vague or too quick. Nice job!

Thank U so much. I'm working/fake fun fur yarn & I kept dropping my cast-on stitches. This way of casting on makes it much more difficult to drop.

Fabulous! Got it in one minute. I've been knitting forever but this is the easiest, quickest way and she demonstrates it so well.
