When the young lady shows you how the stitch looks on the back, you can't see it because, her finger is in the way.

When would you need to use this type of cast on? I'm confused as to the purpose of it.

How do you take the freankin captions off? I clicked on cc, but it still won't turn the captions off! Aarrgh!

i watched the cost on the right needle. is this the one for the left needle?

i really don't know anything. :S

[lilmizweasley]

What size needles are those? Anybody know?

Thank you for this. I was confusing this with the knitted cast on, and inserting the right-hand needle incorrectly. Now I can make a very neat edge!

It does matter which method you use sometimes, if a project needs a specific method, the pattern will tell you so. As with many different crafts, you will find the one that works best for you.
