Chinese Waitress (Double-Chain) Cast-Off - KnitFreedom.com

When you do the Chinese Waitress Cast-On on a reversible project, a standard bind-off doesn't quite match. This cast-off creates an edge identical to the Chinese Waitress Cast-On so that you can enjoy the way your starting and finishing edges look when next to each other.
To do the Chinese Waitress (Double-Chain) Cast-Off:
1. Purl the first stitch, wrapping the yarn clockwise around the needle (this is opposite to the way you normally do).
2. Yarnover
3. Purl the next stitch, again wrapping the yarn clockwise.
4. Pass the yarnover over the first stitch on the right-hand needle.
5. Pass the second stitch over the first stitch on the right-hand needle.
6. Repeat steps 2-5 until all stitches are bound off.
7. Cut the yarn, leaving a 6-inch tail for weaving in. Pull through last stitch.
