Thank you for remembering that there are non-right-handed folks in the world! You have warmed my heart! Now scurrying over to watch the other video....
Thank you so much I’ve tried all day to cast on for my hat with just the knitting needle .I couldn’t figure it out. I found this video and I was so excited that it worked . I bought the pattern. I’m working on my first hat .
THANK YOU!!! I am on my 6th hat and have always struggled with this cast on. Today I tried your method and within 5 minutes I was increasing and already on a roll. Best explanation ever.
as a crochter the cast on wasn't the hard part, but I definitely needed the how to flip the stitches and get them ready for magic loop tutorial. Thanks for this.
Grazie mille, Natty! You've made this so clear and understandable. I just bought the pattern, watched a video about the pinhole cast on with dpns and nearly gave up the whole idea. Then I watched this video. I can do this. There is a musselburgh hat in my near future. Thank you.
Thank you so much for the right AND left hand videos. I crochet left handed but am an English style knitter. I cant wait to make my first Musslerburgh hat!!!
At last! I have struggled with this cast on for.ev.er and yours is the best tutorial I have seen. After following along, this is the first time I finally got it. Thanks so much. P.S. As the mom to a lefty, it's pretty cool that you did a whole video just for them.
Thank you so much! I’m starting my 4th Musselburgh hat today! They are so fun to make and this starter is icing on the cake! Did you know the history behind them? I believe they were used by WWI soldiers, because they were so warm, and since they were extra long could also be as a scarf or heaven forbid a tourniquet if needed.
Thank you so so very much! The clearest and easiest tutorial for this hat pattern cast on yet! I so appreciate how you also show in detail how to correctly get the stitches oriented on the knitting needles before actually starting the project. I was totally missing that part:)
Thank you!! I have watched so many videos and even took it to my LYS who very kindly started one for me but I made a mistake and wanted to start over and could not do it. This is EXACTLY what I needed to see to try again 😊
I like how this got posted a few hours ago, and I just bought this pattern literally last night, and now I feel prepared to do it, thanks to your tutorial!
I bought the pattern last year and absolutely could not figure out the cast on…SO THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! You explanations are so clear and easy to understand! I can hear the “teacher” in you😉Now to cast on a HAT!!!!❤️
This was a very clear video. I actually struggled so much with the crochet cast-on I gave up, until I found a video that did almost the same thing but using knitting needles throughout. But your version is so detailed, I may well try this again.
Love this pattern. I have 3 Musselburgh WIPS going right now. Didn’t think of changing the orientation. What a great idea! Thanks for making this tutorial!
Thank you so very much for your tutorial, because casting on with double-pointed needles gives me 'the vapours.' I infinitely prefer to work the Magic Loop, so now I will purchase the Musselburgh Hat pattern. I live in Canada, where cold temperatures require well-padded, layered hats. Bless you for making the Musselburgh Hat achievable for this Magic Loop advocate.
I can’t thank you enough for this tutorial! I’m a crocheter who is learning to knit and I’ve been wanting to make this pattern so badly but the cast on has been what has been stopping me from attempting this project.
Natalie, this is the easiest tutorial that I have been able to follow . Yourinstructions are clear and precise. And slow enough for me to follow along with you. I have knit two Hats and had to at cast on rip off cast on so manyalmost gave up on knitting a hat at all. But, I’ve feel confident with these instructions, and video I think I will be knitting Quite a few hats in the future. Thank you thank you thank you😊😊
Thank you sooo much! This is perfect timing, since I am about to cast on my very first Musselburgh in a few days :) So, thanks for the very clear and helpful tutorial!
I have been so anticipating this tutorial. I want to make the hat. I bought the pattern, and this seems so difficult to start. I am a new knitter I year in today! Thanks Natalie ❤
Omg Natty....your awesome...lol...I've made several of these now, and the itch has started again to knit more!...but the cast on is tricky...you make the best and most helpful videos....kisses to Toaster!
Natalie! Thank you so much for this. I’ve been wanting to knit this hat for years, but so afraid to start one. I’m hoping I’ll be successful now that you have done this video. 💜💙
Wow... what a great clear slow precise tutorial! I am a crocheter and knitter, so this start is right up my alley! 😊 thank you for making the beginning of this hat pattern easy! I do like using magic loop, and not dp's... so thank you ! New subscriber here.
Thanks Natalie. I've just started my fifth Mussellburgh hat and followed your video for the cast on. It is so neat. I'm also a left handed knitter. soooo good. Thank you again
It would be great of you had authorization to do a tutorial for the hat. I'm only two years into knitting and would love to have my own collection of Musselburgh hats. I bought the pattern about a year ago and haven't had the courage to give it a go😊🤭😬
Amazing 🙌🏻 I have never been able to successfully knit in the round so far. Seeing your Musselburgh hats made me want to try, but that cast on was an exercise in frustration. Crocheting it is genius.
Thank you thank you thank you soooo much! I've tried to cast on this hat 20 times and couldn't figure out how to make it work. Can't wait to make mine start now.
I just went through your tutorials, yesterday, looking for this! Lol! I thought I had missed it. But, I found your cuff down sock series (which I LOVE! I did leave a comment too! 😊). I will be checking out the toe up series too. I've made my supply list of things that I need to pick up so I can make some socks and give the afterthought heel a try. This cast on looks so much easier than using DPN's and I think I can use it with the pattern I've found for a hat that is a similar construction to the musselburgh. Thank you, thank you, thank you! For your wonderful tutorials. I always learn so much! 💜✌️🧶
I know that this is a paid pattern but I have heard some knitters having issue with the increases? Is there a way for you to do a tutorial on how increases are done? Not the count of the stitches because I wouldn't want you to give out the pattern itself, but rather the process on how the increase is done? I'm a visual learner and I would love to see how the steps or maybe method of how the increase is done? I hope I made sense. I'm hesitant to buy the pattern is I can't understand how the increases are done because then I will just be stuck and not do the pattern... and money down the drain. Thank you.
Hey! I think the issues people have had is understanding how to set up the increases, spacing-wise. It is written in a more complex way than needed, in my opinion. The increase technique itself is just m1r and m1l. There are tons of tutorials out there for those specific stitches! If you have any trouble setting up the increase row, feel free to email me: knittynatty @ gmail.com. I’m happy to help!
I was wondering if you could do a video on showing how to cleanly weave in and hide your ends for this hat, especially if you use two different skeins of yarn in one.
Excellent tutorial, Natty. I had trouble years ago with this cast on , since then Laura has remade her original video and by George I got it the first time I watched it. The next Musselburgh I make I’ll use this method and see how I like it. I knit and crochet so I’ve plenty of crochet hook sizes as well as interchangeable needle sets. ;) New Subbie here, just learned of you over the past weekend.
Thank you for the amazing explanation! I have tried to start this hat I don’t know how many times only to frog it. Maybe now I can get through the increases and finish one.
Thank you so much! I had started the hat with a provisional cast on from the bottom up but felt like I was cheating! I really wanted to do it crown down and your video was fantastic!!
I hated this cast on! I would do magic instead, but it didn’t look great. This video is awesome and I can’t wait to try it. There’s a blanket I liked and avoided because it had the same cast in. Thank you for this!
Thank you I've started mine over 10 times. Showing where the markers go helps. You stated at the start of the video you would show how to do first Round? Would you please do that for the very 1st increases? I'm going with what I got as I'm done restarting but would be helpful for another hat later.
Hey Joyce! I only showed the set up for the first round. I'm not planning to show anything further as the pattern isn't mine to share. You can work the first round as written in the pattern while keeping the markers in place as I've shown in the set up!
@@KnittyNatty I got the very first round done. I think what's messing me up is trying to do magic loop and adding the additional increases. If that makes sense. If I make another I will try it on dpns. Thank you for your response.
Thanks for the great video! Regarding the stitch turn step... What if you yarn UNDER when crocheting into the magic circle rather than yarning OVER? Since knit stiches are done counter clockwise, could you just do this from the initial set-up? (I'm a crocheter and VERY new to knitting, so take my suggestion with some salt!)
Starting my Musselburgh hat today. I’ve only done socks! Kinda of scary with all the charts etc but I’m doing it ~ branching out. My question though is how do I know when to or how to start my second color if I want to do the two different colors?
Hi Natalie. Just watched today's video. Love the tutorial! I'll have to try that next time. Looks a lot neater and easier than a long tail. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.
Legend says that if you stand in front of a mirror and say, "Musselburgh Hat" three times, Natty appears and knits a hat for you in 15 minutes 😂😂
🤣😂🤣
😂
Oh, wouldn't THAT be nice!
❤😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thank you for remembering that there are non-right-handed folks in the world! You have warmed my heart! Now scurrying over to watch the other video....
Pretty sure I've watched every Musselburgh cast on video, but yours is the only one that works for me. Thank you!
I'm a crocheter and this is one of the only knitting tutorials I'll ever understand 😂❤
I have to watch this every time I start a beanie. Lol
Thank you Natalie! ❤❤❤❤
A really helpful tutorial. Thank you! Forwarded it to my nephew who is attempting the Musselburgh for the first time. Best wishes!
Thank you so much I’ve tried all day to cast on for my hat with just the knitting needle .I couldn’t figure it out. I found this video and I was so excited that it worked . I bought the pattern. I’m working on my first hat .
THANK YOU!!! I am on my 6th hat and have always struggled with this cast on. Today I tried your method and within 5 minutes I was increasing and already on a roll. Best explanation ever.
Of all the videos I've watched about how to do this cast on, yours is the very best! Thanks for showing me how to do this :)
This is so much easier than the other videos. Thank you so much! I think I can do it now.
What a fantastic way to start a hat, so easy. Thank you for all your sleepless nights while you were trying to figure it out.
as a crochter the cast on wasn't the hard part, but I definitely needed the how to flip the stitches and get them ready for magic loop tutorial. Thanks for this.
Thank you for this tutorial! It is very clear and makes the start of the Musselburgh Hat beginning so much easier. 😊
Omg I was literally searching for a tutorial on the pattern cast on to find your 16 minutes ago uploaded video. 😂😂😂 it was a sign for sure!! ❤❤❤
Whoa!!! Perfect timing!!
Thanks SO much! I’m a hybrid- crochet/knitter and this makes this step simpler👍🏻
a magic circle is an open knot. bless you for this, I finally understand
Grazie mille, Natty! You've made this so clear and understandable. I just bought the pattern, watched a video about the pinhole cast on with dpns and nearly gave up the whole idea. Then I watched this video. I can do this. There is a musselburgh hat in my near future. Thank you.
Thank you so much for the right AND left hand videos. I crochet left handed but am an English style knitter. I cant wait to make my first Musslerburgh hat!!!
Okay, fine, I'll cast mine on. It's been in my queue forever
Hahaha you got this!
Same!!!
OMG same! I bought the pattern ages ago and have been too scared to cast on 😂
Thank you SO much for this video! Your directions were clear and easy to follow and my first Musselburgh has been successfully cast on.
You are so welcome! Great job!!
You are an excellent teacher I hope you do more tutorials. I’m left handed and so grateful you showed it both ways 💕
How easy it is when you find the right video! Thank you so much for the clear instructions!
At last! I have struggled with this cast on for.ev.er and yours is the best tutorial I have seen. After following along, this is the first time I finally got it. Thanks so much. P.S. As the mom to a lefty, it's pretty cool that you did a whole video just for them.
You are a terrific teacher. Very clear, well paced. TY❤
Natalie!!! I love you for this! Ive had the yarn and pattern in a project bag for ages just puzzled on how to start. Youre the best!
Ditto
I've been waiting to start my first Musselburgh because I knew you promised this tutorial!!! so excited!
Yay!!! Enjoy!
Thank you so much! I’m starting my 4th Musselburgh hat today! They are so fun to make and this starter is icing on the cake! Did you know the history behind them? I believe they were used by WWI soldiers, because they were so warm, and since they were extra long could also be as a scarf or heaven forbid a tourniquet if needed.
Which needles size did you use? 0:37
Thanks for tutorial 💗 which yarn and needle size did you use
Thank you so so very much! The clearest and easiest tutorial for this hat pattern cast on yet! I so appreciate how you also show in detail how to correctly get the stitches oriented on the knitting needles before actually starting the project. I was totally missing that part:)
Hola, y los aumentos donde los hace a cada lado de el marcador ???? esa parte no entiendo y no se ingles😢si me explicas te agradezco 🙏🏻🇺🇾
This is so amazing. It took me forever to do the cast on the first time. Thank you, thank you.
This was SO helpful. And easy. Thank you. Now I won’t dread starting a new Musselburgh
How timely! I’ve been procrastinating casting on another Musselburgh. Thank you so much!😊
Hi! Thank you for showing us this crochet cast on. I found dpns too frustrating. I have now cast on for my first Mussleburgh hat!!!!😀🧶
thank you for doing this with magic loop! It is very helpful.
YAY !!! Just in time! About to finish #3, and ready to start #4! Thanks.
Great tutorial! Just casted on my 5th Musselburgh using it and it’s the first time I wasn’t totally frustrated doing it! Thank you!
I plan to start this today. I’m very nervous about the cast on but your video was very helpful. Thank you so much. Fingers are crossed 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

Awesome! Thank you for doing this. I've fallen in love with this hat after watching you make yours and can't wait to try it myself.
I live in Musselburgh and have never heard of this hat. Every day's a school day!
I’m so curious-Since you live there, is it pronounced Mussel-burrow or Mussel-burr or Mussel-burg?
@@Nicelady29Neither. It's pronounced Mussel-burrah.
I bought the pattern last year and absolutely could not figure out the cast on…SO THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! You explanations are so clear and easy to understand! I can hear the “teacher” in you😉Now to cast on a HAT!!!!❤️

Thank you so much! I had started the hat with a provisional cast on from the bottom up but felt like I was cheating! I really wanted to do it crown down and your video was fantastic!!
Haha that's not cheating! Do it whichever works best for you! Now you have two tools in your toolbox 😁
I really like this magic circle with crochet hook but how do you start knitting rows after circle ?
Love this episode! Will Kent be sharing some of his northern lights photos with us? We saw them in S.Indiana! But no good photos.
I hated this cast on! I would do magic instead, but it didn’t look great. This video is awesome and I can’t wait to try it. There’s a blanket I liked and avoided because it had the same cast in. Thank you for this!
The initial cast on was very helpful. Problem I have is I don’t know how to use the circular needles at the starting point
After many attempts.. I don't crochet so holding needles were a learing curve.
Think I'm ready to increase. Thank you 😊❤
Woohoo! Proud of you!

Thank you! This was so helpful! I just couldn't figure that transfer out.
Tbh I don’t even knit (I crochet$ but I love your videos so I still watched it all
How nice would it be if u had whatever color u want on the outside but a yarn with silk for the inside to protect your hair better.
Hi Natalie. Just watched today's video. Love the tutorial! I'll have to try that next time. Looks a lot neater and easier than a long tail. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe.
Thank you so much from a LEFTY😁
You’re welcome!
Thank you so much, this tutorial was a life saver!
Any way that you can do a video of the cast on using DPNs
Oh, geez! I used to do this when I was learning how to crochet as a kid!!! I just forgot about it cuz I only knit now 😂
