To begin knitting, you necd to work a foundation row of stitches called casting on. There are several ways to cast on depending on the typc of edge that you want (see also page 24). The cast on edge should be firm; too loose and it will look untidy and flarę out, too tight and it will break and the stitches unravel.

If your casting on is always too tight, use a size larger needle.

If it is always too loose, use a size smaller needle. Remember to change back to the correct size needle to begin knitting.

The slip knot counts as the first cast on stitch. It is madę some distance from the end of the yam and placed on the needle. Puli the ends of the yam to tighten itYou now have two ends of yam coming from the slip knot; the bali end attached to the bali and a shorter free end.

For the thumb method of casting on. you will need approximately I in (2.5cm) for every stitch you want to cast on.When you have cast on. you should have at least a 6in (15cm) length to sew in.
