Tillybuddy's very stretchy cast on

[@nikiTricoteuse]

This is brilliant. Thanks for such a clear tutorial. I find repeating loop, loop, loopdy doop in my head as l go round the needles and underneath is both ridiculously satisfying and a great way to remember to go underneath. 😊

[@DonnaStevenson-k2d]

This is a very well-presented stretchy cast-on method. It's the only one I've come across where I haven't felt like giving up because it all seemed so frustratingly complex. Thank you, thank you!

[@stitchoneknittoo3756]

You're very welcome!

[@MichelleWhiteRiverain]

This is the clearest video instruction on this particular cast on! Thanks for making it so easy.

[@ruthw5732]

Finally a stretchy two-needle cast-on! I have never been able to master the 'sling-shot' methods using just one needle and have managed to get the hang of this one relatively quickly. Thank you very much for posting it.

[@stitchoneknittoo3756]

Glad I could help!

[@michelechorman3433]

Thanks so much for this. I love your words in the beginning encouraging us to use it as a regular cast on for so many projects. The video was very clear.

[@birgitahrendt7573]

accidentely I made 40 stiches more than I need. It is so easy and make fun

[@pascalegravel9394]

Great great!! Love this new (to me) cast-on method! Thank you so much! 😊

[@chocomallows2559]

I made a beanie years ago and used a cast on like this, though IIRC there was an 'extra stitch' at the beginning. I've been looking for that video tutorial but so far I failed. This is the closest to that, thanks! I've seriously doubted if I just dreamt of it lol

[@birgitahrendt7573]

wow ☺ what a wonderfull way to make an easy stretchy cast on . I love it

[@knittingknut]

2 stitches cast on every time you work the manoeuvre. It’s so fast and easy.

[@lizmullaney305]

This 😅s amazing! So simple and effective.

[@Pluviophile218]

I've never seen this before but I'm definitely going to try it. Thank you.

[@stitchoneknittoo3756]

Hope you enjoy

[@Pluviophile218]

@@stitchoneknittoo3756 I did try this and I love it! Going to use this cast on regularly. Nice job!

[@CastOnCalamity]

I love that cast on! I was never able to find the blog I learned it from, I wanted to double check to see if it said to only ever purl the first stitch - I’m very good at doubting my memory. I don’t think a reason for purling the first was given.

[@stitchoneknittoo3756]

Hi, I have never tried it with a purl stitch so I had to do it. :) I did not notice a difference so you can do it either way. Also if you like this cast on you should try the twisted german cast on. Great for sweaters. kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHyvnZ6FiMmcoZI

[@CastOnCalamity]

I’m not seeing a difference either, which is why I was trying to find the blog - I was wondering if I imagined the purl rule. I knit the first if I need to. Before I found this cast on I would do a Judy’s Magic Cast On and stretchy bind off one side. I’ll take a look at the twisted german.

[@QuiltedKittenFosters]

I thought I was doing this cast-on, but I don't twist the right under the left needle after pulling the stitch through, I just put in onto the left needle purlwise, and it works just fine for my socks.

[@stitchoneknittoo3756]

Hi, Yes it does work well if you just put the pulled stitch on your left needled, but it also creates a lace like edging, with larger loops. The other way by looping under you get a straighter edge, which might be more interesting if you were knitting socks for a guy. :)

[@annec1756]

Thank you for the very clear video. Can it be used for a 1x1ribbed collar of Top down sweater ?

[@stitchoneknittoo3756]

Yes it can be used for a 1x1 rib🙂

[@lisaspong4425]

THANK YOU!❤️

[@yvettelatham1318]

Love this ❤

[@chrisbahls1338]

Thanks for sharing! But what makes this an "even number" cast on? I can't see a reason that it wouldn't be fine with an odd number of stitches.

[@stitchoneknittoo3756]

You can for sure make it into an odd number of stitches... just by casting on one last stitch at the end.

[@leannetroxel2641]

Have you used this cast on with magic loop? I tried using this cast on for a hat on magic loop and repeatedly had to rip it out because the cast on stitches got too tight to put back on the needles (from the cords). Does anyone have help on how to avoid this problem? Thanks.

[@stitchoneknittoo3756]

You could try casting on with larger needles. Not sure if this helps

[@nikiTricoteuse]

A trick l've found that works well is to do the cast on row and the first working row on a straight needle. Then knit the next row onto the needle you're using for magic loop and begin working in the round. When l've finished my project l use the yarn tail to join the two edges together. It's easy to make the join look invisible and you're probably sewing in the tail anyway. Also, by working the first row straight, it's easier to join without accidentally twisting it. Hope this helps. 😊

[@yohanasusanto9167]

I love Tillybudy stretchy cast on. Is there any bind off method that as stretchy as this?

[@knittingknut]

Yes it’s called Jeny’s Surprisingly Stretchy Bindoff kzbin.info/www/bejne/eV6qopyqep2Eqpo

[@stitchoneknittoo3756]

Hi. I would use this bind off to have some give kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4KnfmmYpKmXeNU
