Long tail cast on method for knitting WITHOUT yarn length estimation

[@hellabella5]

What a great video! I've been knitting for many, many years ...this is fresh information and SO helpful! Thank you!

Clearly explained demonstration. This is very useful for large projects. I don't like guesswork when it comes to long tail cast on. This method eliminates the worry of running out of yarn! Thank you!

OMGOODNESS, this it the best way ever. Thanks

This is wonderful. I love this method. I'm trying this method on my next sweater. I struggle with getting enough yarn length when I cast on... so this is truly a big help. And thank you for the wonderful explanation.

Great method, nicely demonstrated. Definitely one to use because, bottom line, it's a yarn saver! Thank you for sharing your expertise ☺️

Love this idea Jess. I like to use a contrast cast on at the start of my socks , this way makes it so easy. Thankyou.

Thank you so much for your lovely comment Robyn! Oh what a fantastic idea to use the 2-colour version for adding a decorative finish to socks!! ♥️

I followed this method to start off the chevron stripe baby blanket but I'm not sure if I did something weird, it looks normal when I've just cast on, but once I knit the first row as I knit each stitch the bar between the cast on stitch on the left needle and the knitted row 1 stitch on the right needle becomes quite loose. Sorry I don't know how to describe that any better.

the wrap method doesn’t work tho… i need a method that works everytime, like your video description explains…
