Thanks!
i just bought some knitting needles because i thought it would be nice to give my friends some homemade knitted christmas presents, and this really helped me.

Wow. Thanks. This was a good one because I could see what you were doing easier with the camer angled like it was and you didn’t speak to fast. If you yourself do anymore knitting videos I want to know about it!!!

I first started knitting 25 years ago. I’ve found this video whilst tryin to find a cast on stitch that is neat. Not only have I found that in this video but I cannot believe how easy it is. OMG! wish my nan hadnt taught me the cast on stitch now lol : )

The Method I was using before involved guesswork and a lot of redoing, this was so helpful
