How To Cast On: Tubular Cast On - one of many Cast on Methods - 2 (ARNE & CARLOS)

[@elizabethstromme4083]

I laughed out loud when Carlos said "will we ever use these other cast ons again? Probably not..." Thanks for being honest with us. ;)

[@susankravitz4095]

I really like this cast on for a brioche project. It allows the edge to look the same on each side, as the brioche is reversible. It also has a very substantial feel to it.

[@loishanson6975]

Great idea

[@madmigraineur3815]

Oh thank goodness!!! A channel with people who knit the same way I do! My mother-in-law taught me how to knit, and every time I watch tutorials I get confused (especially with things like heel turns) because all the knitters actually hold the yarn and knit so differently than me. They throw it over or hold it with the other hand- you guys hold it the same way I do! I know it sounds silly, but it really does make a difference in my understanding, since I’m still a beginner. I look forward to learning more! Thank you 🙏

[@joanneyoung1081]

Nicely done. This cast on with a straight needle is more helpful than casting on the first time with a circular needle.

[@tl4214]

Thank you for the tutorial! Yes, Italian Cast On. I think 'tubular ' refers to an infinity edge, meaning no horizontal line under the first row of stitches. I was taught its nice for bottom-up hats, but not necessarily visible on a sleeve cuff. When I told myself the path to follow, I would add Back, Over, up Middle, Back the Way I came, or Front over, down the Middle. As the stitch completes, and I either see the purl bump or the free standing vertical bar of the initial knit stitch, and say the stitch so I can keep the rhythm of the cast on.

A big ‘Hello’ from the UK, I’m currently binge watching your channel, I’m currently at ‘Sit and Knit for a bit episode 8’ I met you briefly in 2019 but you weren’t knitting at the festival of quilts (unfortunately for me) and at that time I owned three of your books and had made some of your patterns. I now own 8 of your books and have made loads. I’ve been tagging you on instagram and mentioning your books and on my You Tube Channel. I have made two more of your patterns this week and I will share them in my next video and on instagram soon. I used to try to find you on You tube years and years ago, and I watched videos in Norwegian and I had no clue what you were saying ha ha. I’m so happy that you have your own channel now, and it’s in english.

[@cwilson991]

Thank you! I asked for this tutorial. I have been knitting "our way" for about a year. Since then, I have finished 5 sweaters (some baby, but one for my 6'3" son), two pillows using your squares from 2020, a blanket, hats, socks, Compared to two sweaters the year before. Our way is faster, makes more sense, and is easier on the hands, I like how the tubular cast-on looks, and I LOVE the way you do it. It is by far the easiest way. Keep healthy and happy. I watched it yesterday on my smartTV, so I could not comment until now. I have your bird book because I LOVE the photos. You brighten my day,

[@Artemis3133]

Just a note about the tubular cast-on: I learnt this for my Passap knitting machine in the 70s. the reason it's called tubular is more obvious on a knitting machine. So on a double-bed machine, you cast on as for a 1:1 rib (forming a zigzag) and then knit circular for 2 rounds then back to 1:1 rib. If you were doing this by hand, and knitting in the round ,you would cast on your stitches using the Italian method, then knit 4 rounds of Round 1&3: (K1 slip1), Round 2&4: (slip 1 P1). Before you revert to 1:1 rib you should be able to see that a tube has formed where one side is the knit stitches and the other side is the purl stitches. If you were working flat, then it would just be a case of knitting the knits and slipping the purls for the tubular rows. Similarly, you can do a tubular bind-off for a rib edge.

[@lkmemphis]

This makes sense and the name "tubular" matches (sort of) the version of the tubular cast-on I just learned from Cap Sease's book, _Cast-On-Bind-Off_, in which you use scrap yarn to make backward loops, then knit and purl from that. Eventually the scrap yarn is pulled out and discarded. I like the look a lot, but I don't think it can be done in a circular cast on...I think. Anybody know?

[@Artemis3133]

@@lkmemphis so that’s a form of provisional cast on. I’ve done this using a crochet hook and waste yarn and you form chain stitches around one needle and you can absolutely knit circular with that method. The crochet chain is easily pulled out afterward. My go-to reference is the Vogue Ultimate Knitting Book. So many options!

[@ARNECARLOS]

[@ARNECARLOS]

You as well!

[@iritliebman6840]

I do it differently. After I finish the cast on like you showed, there are 4 rows of k1 then slip as if to purl. This is what makes the "tube". Only then can you start with k1 p1.

[@janicemacdougall1844]

I am saving this video so I can try and learn this new cast-on method. When would you use you this type of cast-on? Thank you for teaching us. :)

[@francessnider7437]

I have done this cast-on for a 2x2 rib, but you are right, there is a row of rearranging the stitches before you start the knitting. It does not show though, and the edge and ribbing look fine after the rearrangement. It makes for a nice clean edge.

[@ARNECARLOS]

Do your longtail cast on and form the stitch from the thumb then behind from the finger (purle cast on), then the thumb then from behind the finger, etc. This is a knit one purl one cast on. In this way you can do any count of rib and it it invisible.
