Demonstration of a No Fuss Seamless cast on
for Working in the Round
Suitable for toe up socks, glasses cases, and similar knitted projects worked in the round
Demonstrated on 3 flex needles, but adaptable to double points or magic loop and other methods of knitting in the round
This No Fuss Seamless cast on is a simplied version of casts ons that employ various ways of creating a seamless join for toe up socks and other similar projects. While casting on to two needles other casts ons might use a tail, figure 8 wraps and knitting through the back loop to prevent twisted stitches. This cast on circumvents the need for these techniques. And although it begins with a slip knot to stablize the yarn, the knot is discarded as you work the first round.
