Oh my gosh, you are a game-changer! I have dexterity limitations due to cerebral palsy so I often can’t do the many intricate maneuvers required for so many decorative cast ons. I pretty much stick with the knitted on cast on. because it’s what I can do. Thank you for showing me a way to do the tubular cast on which will be actually possible for me to accomplish. Definitely saving this video to my playlist of cast on techniques so I can refer to it often. THANK YOU!!

I like how you can join in the round pretty much right away as opposed to the Italian/LT tubular cast-on where we normally work back and forth for a round or two so we dont twist on joining. By joining early there is no little gap.

I love this method, I usually do it into a provisional (crochet) cast on. I might try your long tail modification to do the setup row at the same time next time I have to do it, although I generally like only having to count half my stitches if it's a big cast on! Recently I've been doing the folded version of the tubular cast on, because I'm working a lot of 2x2 rib and I find the folded version easier to change into 2x2 than this method (where you have to physically rearrange the stitches)

Thanks for sharing this. I always learn so much from your videos. I've had the issue of casting on a large number for a tubular edge and having it twist on me. I'll have to try one of these methods next time. Have you ever done a video about Italian bind off? I see it being used a lot now in patterns. For a long edge, like a button band or a sweater hem, it is a lot of yarn to pull through the stitches. Any tips/tricks you have for making the process easier is appreciated.

I've done several on the tubular/grafted bind off (which is what the Italian BO is, not sure why it got renamed in recent years!). I believe this one addresses adding an additional length of yarn for a long edge. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qH61qHSZaa96qNU

Thank you so much! I love a tubular cast-on, but always struggle at first. This is going really change things up. Just a question - is the needle size different to the main needle size after setup rows? Of so, what is the general rule of thumb for sizings? Thanks again!
@RoxanneRichardson
@RoxanneRichardson 5 ай бұрын
A smaller needle is typically used for the set up rows. You then move to the needle size desired for the ribbing. Some patterns call for the ribbing to be knit on needles one or two sizes smaller than the stockinette portion, others do not. Therefore, if your pattern calls for a ribbing needle that is smaller than the main body of the pattern, you will use an even smaller needle for the set up rows.

I'm a beginner knitter, and tried tubular cast on yesterday for the first time. It wasn't successful to say the least ) I'll try this method today. It look way easier. What are the needle sizes you used for the setup round and for the ribbing? Thank you for the tutorial!
@RoxanneRichardson
@RoxanneRichardson 8 ай бұрын
The needle size you use depends on the yarn weight (thickness). In addition, sometimes you might use the same needle size for your ribbing that you use for the stockinette/main body of the pattern, while other times you might go down a needle size or two. Regardless, you would use a needle 1 or 2 sizes smaller than *that* for the cast on and setup rows/rounds. For example, if you're using worsted weight yarn and a size 7/4.0mm needle for both the ribbing and the stockinette, you might want to use a US 5/3.75mm needle for the cast on and setup. If you plan to use a US 7 for the stockinette, and a US 5 for the ribbing, then you'd use a US 3 for the cast on/setup rounds.

No doubt tubular COs and BOs make for a beautiful seamless edge. The various techniques for achieving these edgings are very clever. I'll confess that I have a slight prejudice against them for one reason: when I was growing up and learning how to knit, my mom would check the cast-on of a knitted item in a store to determine whether it was hand-knit or machine-knit. A tubular cast-on was (for her) a sure sign that the item was machine-knit. I suspect that the tubular cast-on was not a common technique among hand-knitters in the UK (where she grew up), so this rule-of-thumb probably served her well. I'll try to get over my prejudice and use a tubular CO for my next hat.
@RoxanneRichardson
@RoxanneRichardson 8 ай бұрын
I suspect that one of the reasons knitters *like* the tubular CO is because they think it's "more professional." That's the edge machine knits have, but they don't understand that machines knit that way because they can't do other kinds of cast ons. It's the same with short row heels. People are used to them and like the way they look, because every commercially knit sock they've ever had looks like that. When I remember thinking that the heel flap and gusset looked strange when I first learned to knit socks.
@alanptaylor11
@alanptaylor11 8 ай бұрын
@@RoxanneRichardson Good points. I guess I'm not consistent because I like a short-row heel for those reasons but DISLIKE tubular CO because of ingrained bias. Of course, there were many years when people were embarrassed to wear "homemade" sweaters when others could afford to wear the more-expensive store-bought sweaters. Now that has flipped. I agree that heel-flap-and-gusset construction looks strange (and like a poor solution to the problem of widening the sock for the heel), which is probably why there are so many variations of heel construction.

So tubular cast on, always entails 2 set up rows ? Before moving forward with I-cord edging and buttonband...as noted in my current pattern ? I’ve never read a pattern before, and trying to understand this process for my neck band. Thank you in advance , for any tips. And I’ve looked for tutorial for my scenario, but yet to find one.

As explained in the video, you need to do at least 2 set up rows for a tubular cast on, but you can choose to do four. The choice is up to the knitter, based on the result they prefer. Do swatches to see which you prefer. There is no right or wrong.

There is no objective advantage or disadvantage. It's personal preference. See note at 6:16 at the bottom of the screen. The tube of the tubular cast on is formed by the use of double knitting (that's what the set up rows are doing). The number of set up rows determines the size of the tube.
