How Do I Long-Tail Provisional Cast On?
Просмотров 4812 часов назад
Your knitting pattern might tell you to use a provisional cast on - and there are LOADS of ways to do this! In this video Iris shows you the long-tail provisional cast on method which, as you clever watchers may have guessed, is a lot like your regular old long-tail cast on! For some, this might be easier than the crochet hook method. Provisional cast-ons use waste yarn to hold onto live stitch...

Hurray! During this Socktober meet-up, we celebrated multiple folks for completing their first sock and casting on for their second, and Jill has finished a pair! It's not a race, so we were equally jazzed to see folks working on their first sock. AND -hurray for Bev, a new sock knitter who has successfully cast on and knit her ribbing on DPNs.

Great easy method. Thank you!!
Amazing, right?!
Yes it is amazing. I used another “easy” one from RUclips but yours is a lot easier!!
Thanks, I found yours easier than another one for this technique.
Wonderful to hear!
Great Podcast...as always. Thank you!❤❤
Yay! Glad you enjoyed it!
I love your jumpers. Can you tell me where I can get the patterns?
Thank you. Your videos are helpful because you clearly show the size of the bag. Best wishes for your business.
Thanks a lot!! I just bought the hack sheet. 😊😊😊
I have been trying to understand the end of round brioche forever and you finally made the most sense and I finally understand and can do it..thank yoy so much..❤
This is awesome feedback! It was exactly the important little detail we were confused about too, and no one seemed to be showing it!
Love it ❤
Saw you already signed up! :) Yay!
Your podcasts are so fun; I save them for my Sunday morning coffee. Seeing the merch in your hands makes we want to buy everything.😍Do you have a video tutorial on colorworks for a remote goat? Thanks for the fun.
We do not -- yet! However, our new knit along (just announced!) is a colorwork sweater and we've started to curate some great videos for learning aspects of stranded colorwork: ruclips.net/p/PLW5vFfLT9cum_71y_P4a1_BLCxslcxD2n Maybe you'll want to join the KAL?!
@@cashmeregoatyarn5892 Just what I was looking for; signed up for the KAL and dove into some of the material. Happy Holidays
@@kpwelch Hooray! See you on Zoom I hope!
I save your podcasts for Sunday morning coffee. Thanks for all of the fun gift ideas. Seeing the merch in your hands makes me want to buy everything. The superbulky yarn is calling me. Do you have a video tutorial on colorworks for the remote goat.
I love watching you all and seeing what is the latest and greatest in the fiber world! I especially love it when y’all crack each other up!! Makes me laugh out loud! It’s good for our souls! Appreciate you! 💞
You guys are so adorable. Thanks for keeping me company as I knit and drink tea on this rainy morning ❤
Glad you're enjoying your tea and knitting with us!
A hug for your head… ❤ great hat
So quick, too! It's the Hypersonic Hat - freebie with purchase! cashmeregoatyarn.com/products/hypersonic-hat?_pos=1&_sid=24440fa1b&_ss=r
Grazie mille hai spiegato bene e ho capito subito!😊
Prego! xo
Always enjoy your podcasts!! They make me happy! Thanks ladies!!!
So glad we could make you happy!
so good!! thanks for the hack sheet -- I love Petite Knits designs but your mods and yarn choice made it even more chic AND wearable
Thank you! 😊
great video!! will be adding this to my castonitis program
We share this problem, Becca!
I always love your Podcasts, such great ideas always...and you're soooo funny. Maybe it's the time change 😅
We definitely make each other laugh, that's for sure! Glad we're making YOU laugh too. Thanks for joining us. :)
Great podcast! Very inspiring! Looking forward to hearing about the January KAL. ❤
We hope you'll join us, Kelley! :)
I always miss the live zooms but i do catch the recordings...and they're fun!
So glad you're watching! You are a part of the group, even if you don't join us live!
I enjoy watching these, I can't join live as I am on the West Coast and working during the live. I knit while watching and hope to finish at least one sock.
We love that you watch our meetings and we wish you could be with us! Glad to know you're knitting socks along with us!
I missed the live Zoom, but I loved the RUclips version. ❤
Glad to hear you enjoyed it, hopefully we will see you next time.
We hear from lots of folks that they like to sit down and virtually hang out with us on the recording! :)
@@cashmeregoatyarn5892that’s exactly what I do! It’s my scheduled knitting time late at night!
I live in Finland and may have shopped in your shop! I bought lots of yarn but I didn't buy this Barber cord set there. I bought it here and would now like to ask you how to get the stink out? It's almost unbearable to use.😂
If you take it out of it's tin and let it air out the smell should dissipate.
Looks like a beautiful spot to be! Always enjoy watching your podcasts! Thanks for sharing!
It is so beautiful in Maine right now! Thanks for watching.
It’s Hemlock! (The OTR green)
Yes!
Wendy is the best! She purchased those knitting bags from me to gift to both of you! Made on the North Shore of Massachusetts!
She is! And we love our bags!
Such a fun podcast, love your sweater Kristin, very nice.
@@sharonhoughton8057 thank you so much! -Kristin
Is Iris' sweater in the Anchor Millstone Tweed?
Hi - it's Berroco's Millstone Tweed, color Ash: cashmeregoatyarn.com/products/millstone-tweed-by-berroco?_pos=1&_sid=11ad00a11&_ss=r
Hi Iris! This looks so much easier. Can this method be used in the round? Thanks.
Hi Marsha - I am fiddling a bit with the details on this, but the short answer is YES, it can. I would recommend halving your total number of sts and adding ONE for in-the-round knitting. And when you join, my experiment so far has been that it takes a little care to be sure there isn't a gap. Let us know how you find it!
😊 I will try that cast on, for sure! 👍
Let us know how it goes when you try it!
Beautiful designs!
So glad to see you back Kristen. The staff have done a great job taking care of all us Goats while you were away. We missed you.
Kristin you look great!Take it slow and easy. Have lots of Vitamin C and Protein. Look forward to seeing you in September. Lori from Melrose Ma
Welcome back
Thank you! Kristin
I am sooo happy to see you back, Kristen! And thank you Iris and staff for keeping things going!❤❤❤❤
So glad to see Kristin back, take your time healing. Love your podcasts.
Little Wave was designed by Gudrun Johnston. My apologies for naming the wrong designer!
This was the BEST video to simplify a tricky stitch that I needed for Kate Davies' Cowal Cowl. Thank you so much.
Glad it was helpful!
Loved watching this video! ❤
So glad you enjoyed it, Andrea!!!!
Thanks for this series. When you're making multiples of something that use the same pattern just different colors (soap sacks, hair wraps, face scrubbies), do you add your totals & pictures of all of them in one project or do you open one project for each one? I wish Ravelry would add a quantity button to the project page. I enjoy adding my projects to Ravelry. I like to see my stats!
Good segment, girls. I want one of those notion nooks!!
I knowwww, they are SO cute!
"Grok" from Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein and is "technically" Martian. It means to totally understand something; not an academic or dictionary understanding, but a complete absorption of the topic. Woolen comes before worsted in spinning; the same fibers can be first be spun woolen (after carding of the fiber), and the same fibers can be processed twice (first carding then combing) to make worsted fibers. I've always looked at it as the difference between brushing my hair and then making it into a yarn (woolen); or brushing and then combing my hair before making it into yarn (worsted). More chaos in woolen, more order in worsted.
THANK YOU, Tracy!!! Glad to remember the provenance of Grok. :)
Would love to know where you got the project notebook & patch came from too? Have just bought the rucksack thanks to you x
I'm excited for your summer offerings! You're the best!❤
Yay! Thank you, Martha!!!!
Hello! Hello! Love you two! ❤
Thank you!
Re mohair. Rowan is a great staple! Also Emma’s Marvelous Mohair is great to work with. Not traditional but fun to pair with other yarns imo.
I am so glad I wasn’t the only one who has seen issues with the Tilly. I too have had to out it in the dryer. I am now making a Sea Haven in 100% wool because I love the sweater.
Glad you could be reassured, Sue! Can't wait to see the wool Sea Haven!
The description of the Anker construction is helpful ~~~ Thank you,
Glad it was helpful to you! Happy knitting!
Thanks for this very useful information
So glad it's helpful! We wish you well on your Ravelry searches with filters! :) YAY!
Thank you!
