Tara Wheeler from wittylittleknitter.com demonstrates the 'Knitted On' cast on. Also called the 'cable' cast on and the 'chain' cast on. This is the cast on she recommends for knitting Doctor Who Scarves.
Thank you so much for the videos and patterns! They've helped me learn to knit after several abortive attempts! I'm currently 57% through my first scarf -- and my first successful attempt at knitting! Since my first episode was 'Ark in Space,' I'm doing the Season 12.5 pattern.

This is brilliant. Thank you for sharing this... I have always cast on the other way and I hate it! This is so much better! :)

I've never heard of long tail casting....
I've always cast on like this, I feel like I should learn the other way now....

Tara, do you use the same size needles as you use for knitting the scarf or bigger?
