Dear Brooklyn Tweed Watched 20 different italian cast on videos resulting in MUCH practice FRUSTRATION. Yours is by far the best! Clear announcination and loud enough sound. Helpful for all of us whos first language might be something else than English. The light is fantastic letting us see EACH SINGLE STITCH. I love the first stitch suggestion. Especially helpful is the NODGE suggestion after EACH single stitch/sling. I had such a hard time with the stitches all just being "slung" together. In addition the SELVEDGE stitch is simply ingenious. A MILLION THANKS... you are THE PERFECTIONIST I was looking for.
This is the best taught method I have seen. I am using it to cast on for top down knit sweaters. I have modified it to complete knitting in the round which because of the detailed advice on stabilising the stitches means it is eminently possible to create the round and then follow this advice, then knit the rest of the sweater using the magic loop method.
I so wish people would show what happens when you cast on more than will fit on the needle and it starts to spin on the cord. I would love to know for sure what it looks like as you work along and have to correct the spinning as you proceed to the 1st row after the cast on. That is the frustration and where I am unsure.
@@BrooklynTweed_Official Thanks for the quick reply. I am okay with regular cast ons. I struggle with the tubular cast on and how the cast on stitches tend to really spin around once they get on a cord. After the first row of knit and slip all is good. I need help with the tubular spinning on a cord and how to distinguish the stitches once they have spun around.
I’ve had trouble with that too!!! I find these cast on stitches seriously impossible to decipher once they are stretched out on the circular needle cord. What I’ve done to get around that is casting on to double-pointed needles and then working them on to a circular needle over the first round. Keeping the cast on stitches on a needle makes it easier to keep them tight, see them clearly, and make sure they don’t get twisted. Good luck!!!!!!!!
Reading thru the comments I'm relieved to see that I'm not the only one who has anxiety over this CO 😂 Any of the tubular cast on or offs actually....!! Wish me luck,I'm gonna be giving it a try in the morning~!! 🤞😄🧶🥢
Thank you for the clear tutorial. Your relaxing voice helps a lot! When you work in the round with this cast on, what do you do to have a jogless join? Thanks
Hello, thank you for your question! Unfortunately there is not a way to get the join on the tubular cast on completely jogless, but you can go back in and use your yarn tail to neaten up the join while weaving in ends afterward.
Great tutorial, thank you! I’ve tried to get this from written instructions alone without success but this really helped making Italian Tubular Cast-on approachable and successful
Your brims look gorgeous! Definitely goals for me. Maybe after watching this video a few times i can get one as neat. Would you mind telling me what knitting needles you're using?
Hi. Thank you for this video!! Fantastic demonstration. If I use this cast on to knit a hat, do I first do the 3 set up rows flat then join to knit in the round? Thanks!! Cathy
Thanks Cathy! Yes, you can join the work into the round after working the three tubular (setup) rows, then begin working in a rib as you normally would.
Thanks for watching! We like to work the cast on and the tubular rows flat, then join to work in the round, using the yarn tail to sew up the small gap that remains.
If a pattern states to cast on 88 stitches for a 1 X 1 ribbing would you include your first stich as part of the 88 or would you +1? This is a beautiful edging!!
Hello, thank you for your question! If your final cast on number is 88, you would cast on 87 in this method and then make a backwards loop for the 88th stitch.
I've gotten a little messed up because I want to do this circularly. The purl stitches are mounted backwards, not the knits. So which do I slip in this case? Do you have a video for doing this circularly?
Hi Tracy! For the tubular rows you'll be slipping your purls and knitting your knits each time. We like to work the cast on and the tubular rows flat, then join to work in the round, using the yarn tail to sew up the small gap that remains.
Thanks for watching! One of the nice things about this cast on is that you can work it flat, then just start right in to your ribbing in the round - once you're done, you can use your yarn tail to sew the ends of the cast on together so it's all nice and neat. Happy knitting!
I'm guessing you did your hats examples in a round... Do you have a tutorial showing this cast on utilized in a round? It's a very difficult one to manage if you try to join just after the cast on, yet if you do the set up rows before joining- you have a gap that needs to be sewed up (hopefully invisibly using the tail). I wondered if you had your own technique in dealing with this.
If you don’t treat the first stitch you cast on as a selvedge stitch, should you work the first stitch in the actual cast on as a purl? If not you have knit-knit-purl for the first three stitches. Thank you!
Hi Alex! Yes, if you don't need a selvedge stitch and you want your row to start with a knit stitch, you'd count your slip knot as the knit and work your second stitch as a purl. Happy knitting!
thank you for posting this. way easier than the double needle method for me. if you have the time, I've been looking for guidance on a 3 color bind off on a flat project that i just can't get right. any help is appreciated. thx. m
@@BrooklynTweed_Official thank you for the reply.. the more I research the more i don't think it exists, hence nothing to find..just going to break the 3rd color off in my work once I'm done with it..again, thank you for this very helpful video (especially the needle size tip)...casting on now..
Bring your yarn through both legs of the first stitch in the round, then back into the last stitch (basically creating an extra stitch in the round), snug up and weave in your end!
You definitely can! We like to start our tubular cast-ons flat and then join to work in the round - you can use your yarn tail to sew up the small gap that remains.
Thanks so much! Here, Jared has added an extra knit stitch to each edge of his swatch, as you might do for a piece that you intend to seam. If you don't need a selvedge stitch and you want your first row to start with a knit stitch, you'd count your slip knot as a knit stitch and work your second stitch as a purl.
Thanks for watching! Yes, we like to work through the set up (and tubular) rows flat, then join to knit in the round. There will be a small gap which you can sew up with your yarn tail when you've finished your project.
Thanks for watching! The red hat is the Burnaby Hat, the two-color ribbed hat is the First Brioche Hat, and the green hat is similar to our Cloudline Hat pattern, knit in a single strand of worsted weight yarn rather than two strands of fingering weight - all designed by Jared Flood. You can find all three patterns on our website: brooklyntweed.com/
This was super helpful! Been trying to learn this tech but had too many issues with that last stitch! Problem solved! I’ve just bought MANZANITA SUNSET by Seth Richardson and I’ve bought my 1st ever Brooklyn tweed yarn “Brooklyn Tweed Peerie” which I got from our only stockist all the way down here in South Australia 🇦🇺.. another 1st spinning the yarn from a Hank to a ball.. scary stuff! 😅 Now I’ve found your channel, I had to subscribe and peruse later for “the sewn bind off” (what ever that is) to finish off the cowl (I’ve only done the swatch 😂) but better prepared! 😊
Great tutorial! I've been watching a few and was getting pretty confused. One question is there are only 2 set up rows in my patterns for in the round, not 3. Correct?
Thanks so much for watching! Yes, you can also work flat through the first tubular row, then join and knit the second tubular "row" in the round - then you're ready to start your ribbing!
And so, if one was to use this method for circular knitting -- as in a hat -- I'm assuming that one would join the rows after the first row. Is that correct? Any special technique for joining rows?
Exactly! After working the cast on (or the cast on and the tubular rows), you can join to work in the round with whatever method you prefer (crossing over the first & last stitches, casting on an extra stitch and K2tog the first & last stitches, etc.) Once you've finished your project, you can use your yarn tail to sew up the small gap left at the joining point. Happy knitting!
This is a great tutorial, thank you ! If we wanted to join to work my tubular rows in the round, rather than working them flat first, how would you recommend we do that?
Hi Alice! Thanks so much! You can join to work in the round after your cast on row (purling the slip knot together with the first stitch) and work the tubular rounds like so: Round 2: (Tubular Purl Round): *Bring yarn to front, purl 1, bring yarn to back, slip 1 purlwise wyib, repeat from * to end. Round 3: (Tubular Knit Round): *Bring yarn to front, slip 1 purlwise wyif, bring yarn to back, knit 1, repeat from * to end. Round 4: Repeat Round 2. Happy knitting!
I love all those hats in your tutorial, do you have the patterns for them please? The tutorial was the best one I've seen anywhere for Italian cast on by far! A quick question, is it possible to do 2x2 Italian cast on ?
Thanks so much! The red hat is our Burnaby pattern, the green hat is similar to our Cloudline Hat (worked in a worsted weight yarn held single rather than a fingering weight yarn held double), and the two-color brioche hat pattern will be coming out in the fall. For 2x2 ribbing, the cast on and the tubular rows are done the exact same way. All you need to do is to rearrange your knit and purl stitches as you work your first row of ribbing: 1. Skip the first stitch on your L needle and go into the second stitch purlwise. 2. Slip this stitch to your R needle, holding the first stitch just below its base to secure it as both stitches slide off your L needle. 3. Pick up the loose stitch with your L needle. 4. Transfer the two slipped stitches on your R needle back to your L needle. The first four stitches on your L needle are now arranged as 2x2 ribbing. Work the first four stitches and repeat. (You can also do this with a cable needle: Slip 1 purlwise from L to R needle, slip 1 to CN and hold in back, slip 1 purlwise from L to R needle, return stitch on CN to L needle, return both slipped stitches on R needle to L needle.)
On Tubular Row 2 the leading edge of my knit stitches were at the back (and this makes sense since they were slipped without modifying during Row 1). If I knit them regularly, they will be twisted. Should I straighten them out by KTBL (as I did in Row 1) ?
Hi Lori! Yes, if you find that the purl stitches that you slipped in row 1 are sitting backwards now that you want to knit them in row 2, you can straighten them back out by knitting them through the back loop. (That's what I love about knitting, if a stitch isn't quite right you can just fix it and go right on!) Happy knitting!
Hi Barb! Thanks so much! You can follow the same steps and then join to work in the round after you've worked your cast on (and the tubular rows, if you're doing them.)
How do you join in the round? For eg. If i want an even number of stiches, say 20 in 1x1 ribbing do how many stiches should i cast on? The first one is not really a knit or purl so i guess i knit that one as selvage for the tubular rows and so have 21 stiches and then somehow knit that selvage stich to another one? How do i do that?
Hello, thank you for your question! The red cabled hat is our Burnaby pattern: brooklyntweed.com/collections/patterns/products/burnaby. The brioche hat is an upcoming BT pattern and the green is one of Jared's personal pieces.
Hi Sara! The red hat is our Burnaby pattern, the green hat is similar to our Cloudline Hat pattern, and the brioche hat is a new pattern that will be available this fall. Happy knitting!
Great question! We like to work through the cast on & tubular rows flat, then start working in the round, using the yarn tail to sew up the small gap that's left.
It will! You'll need to rearrange your stitches for 2x2 ribbing after you cast on (here's a tutorial that shows how: www.10rowsaday.com/tubular-caston-2x2rib )
Hi Elaine! We like to work the tubular rows flat and then join to work in the round (you can sew up the small gap that's left with your yarn tail once you've finished your project). Alternatively, you can join to work in the round after your cast on row (purling the slip knot together with the first stitch) and work the tubular rounds like so: Round 2: (Tubular Purl Round): *Bring yarn to front, purl 1, bring yarn to back, slip 1 purlwise wyib, repeat from * to end.

The selvedge stitches are totally optional - you might like to have them on a piece that you intend to seam, for example. If you don't need a selvedge stitch and you want your first row to start with a knit stitch, you'd count your slip knot as a knit stitch and work your second stitch as a purl, then end your row with a purl.
Hi Carol! This particular version is for 1x1 ribbing - to do an uneven rib like K1 P2, you could try a 2x2 Italian tubular cast on and then decrease out the unneeded stitches before you start your ribbing - try it on a swatch and see what you think!
Great tutorial - just two questions....when using this for knitting in the round, I see below you mentioned that you would knit the 3 tubular rows flat and then join in the round....does this leave a visible jog? I normally join in the round by casting on an extra stitch, then right before starting, I slip one stitch purlwise and pass the last stitch over...is it possible to do this with this cast on method?
Thank you! You can either knit the tubular rows flat and then join to work in the round using your preferred method, or join after you cast on and work the tubular rows in the round.
Hi Joanne! Great question! If you jump to 9:17 in the video, you'll see that Jared is treating the non-knot stitch as a selvedge stitch on his swatch so he's not counting it as part of his tubular stitches.
The information is nice, but the video would be a lot more helpful if it was shot closer to the actual knitting. Everything is so small it’s difficult to make out the details being pointed out.
Once the stitches glide past the needle onto the cable if using circular needles to create a hat they twist so badly it is impossible to straighten them out to work in the round. There is a much better tubular cast on that prevents this.
@@BrooklynTweed_Official I use the method utilizing a provisional cast-on that creates a beautiful folded over appearance especially effective for items worked in the round. It is extremely simple and lovely. The long tail method becomes a mess on the needles and is entirely too challenging to keep it untwisted in my opinion.
We do like to talk about our knitting! We're trying out some different methods of shooting tutorials so that we can get good closeups - keep an eye out and let us know what you think! Happy knitting!
Finally this is the video that works for my brain! thank you . Stop here guys. I already watched all the others. This is THE ONW!
Yes! We're so happy we could help!

Best tutorial I’ve seen. Is it the same if you’re knitting circular?
Hi Barb! Thanks so much! You can follow the same steps and then join to work in the round after you've worked your cast on (and the tubular rows, if you're doing them.)
How do you join in the round? For eg. If i want an even number of stiches, say 20 in 1x1 ribbing do how many stiches should i cast on? The first one is not really a knit or purl so i guess i knit that one as selvage for the tubular rows and so have 21 stiches and then somehow knit that selvage stich to another one? How do i do that?
Love this tutorial! By any chance - what are the hat patterns shown? Are they published? Thank you!
Hello, thank you for your question! The red cabled hat is our Burnaby pattern: brooklyntweed.com/collections/patterns/products/burnaby. The brioche hat is an upcoming BT pattern and the green is one of Jared's personal pieces.
Please can you tell us the names of these patterns? Thank you
Hi Sara! The red hat is our Burnaby pattern, the green hat is similar to our Cloudline Hat pattern, and the brioche hat is a new pattern that will be available this fall. Happy knitting!
Thank you so much for speedy reply - very helpful! Will wait patiently for the Brioche Beanie! Loving your tutorials! Greetings from Ireland!
How does a person adapt this to working in the round?
Great question! We like to work through the cast on & tubular rows flat, then start working in the round, using the yarn tail to sew up the small gap that's left.
does anyone know a matching bind off method?? I'm using this for a scarf but don't know which bind off is identical

Will this work for two by two ?
It will! You'll need to rearrange your stitches for 2x2 ribbing after you cast on (here's a tutorial that shows how: www.10rowsaday.com/tubular-caston-2x2rib )
Thank you for the explanation, this was helpful. But it’s so hard to keep track of the different directions 😭😭
You can do it! Practice a few times with a swatch and you'll have it down in no time!
how do you join for in the round knitting with this cast--on? Thanks
Hi Elaine! We like to work the tubular rows flat and then join to work in the round (you can sew up the small gap that's left with your yarn tail once you've finished your project).
Alternatively, you can join to work in the round after your cast on row (purling the slip knot together with the first stitch) and work the tubular rounds like so:
Round 2: (Tubular Purl Round): *Bring yarn to front, purl 1, bring yarn to back, slip 1 purlwise wyib, repeat from * to end.
Round 3: (Tubular Knit Round): *Bring yarn to front, slip 1 purlwise wyif, bring yarn to back, knit 1, repeat from * to end.
Round 4: Repeat Round 2.
Happy knitting!
Thank you. I like the first method. Thanks for the quick and clear response.
How do you join in the round without a jog?
Great question! We like to work through the cast on & tubular rows flat, then start working in the round, using the yarn tail to sew up the small gap that's left.
Can you show a cast on for 2 x 2 ribbing please?
We'll add that to our list!
@@BrooklynTweed_Official Thanks. Of course I meant TUBULAR cast on for 2 x 2 ribbing.
....and in the round.
Excellently explained. Thank you. I've subscribed to your channel 😀
Thanks so much! We're working on some new tutorials for the spring.
Nice
Thank you!
Hi ,if I am working in the round like hat brim, at what point I join ?Thanks.

How to I work it in the round?

Where can I find the pattern for the red hat? Its beautiful!
Hello, thank you for your kind words! The red hat is Jared Flood's Burnaby pattern: brooklyntweed.com/products/burnaby
What do you do with those extra 2 stitches on the ends?
The selvedge stitches are totally optional - you might like to have them on a piece that you intend to seam, for example. If you don't need a selvedge stitch and you want your first row to start with a knit stitch, you'd count your slip knot as a knit stitch and work your second stitch as a purl, then end your row with a purl.
Amazing to see thls explained so clearly and thoughtfully. Will definitely give this another try. Thank you 💖 👍
You’re welcome 😊
Will this work for K1 P2 ribbing?
Hi Carol! This particular version is for 1x1 ribbing - to do an uneven rib like K1 P2, you could try a 2x2 Italian tubular cast on and then decrease out the unneeded stitches before you start your ribbing - try it on a swatch and see what you think!
Great tutorial - just two questions....when using this for knitting in the round, I see below you mentioned that you would knit the 3 tubular rows flat and then join in the round....does this leave a visible jog? I normally join in the round by casting on an extra stitch, then right before starting, I slip one stitch purlwise and pass the last stitch over...is it possible to do this with this cast on method?
Thank you! You can either knit the tubular rows flat and then join to work in the round using your preferred method, or join after you cast on and work the tubular rows in the round.
Wow 🤩
I’ve always wondered what this type of cast on was called!! I’m definitely going to start using it now! Thank you
you said that the first (non knot) was a stitch, yet when you did a knit and pearl you said you had two stitches, shouldnt it be three?
Hi Joanne! Great question! If you jump to 9:17 in the video, you'll see that Jared is treating the non-knot stitch as a selvedge stitch on his swatch so he's not counting it as part of his tubular stitches.
The information is nice, but the video would be a lot more helpful if it was shot closer to the actual knitting. Everything is so small it’s difficult to make out the details being pointed out.
We'll work on that for future videos!
А зачем провязывать ещё раз первую кромочную, мы ведь просто вяжем по кругу
В любом случае работает!
Once the stitches glide past the needle onto the cable if using circular needles to create a hat they twist so badly it is impossible to straighten them out to work in the round. There is a much better tubular cast on that prevents this.
Thanks for watching! Which tubular cast on is your favorite?
@@BrooklynTweed_Official I use the method utilizing a provisional cast-on that creates a beautiful folded over appearance especially effective for items worked in the round. It is extremely simple and lovely. The long tail method becomes a mess on the needles and is entirely too challenging to keep it untwisted in my opinion.

Too much talking instead of showing how to do it. And your camera is too far away.
We do like to talk about our knitting! We're trying out some different methods of shooting tutorials so that we can get good closeups - keep an eye out and let us know what you think! Happy knitting!
Too much talking!
Hi Nana! We have each step listed with timestamps in the video description - just click on the timestamp to jump to the part you want to watch!
You know some people wear glasses. why use such small yarn?
We'll zoom in more for future videos!
