Inverse loop cast on
The backwards, loop cast on method makes it easy to cast stitches. Instead of starting with a slip knot you can simply twist the yarn to make a loop. Then, add more loops until you reach the desired number. This method is tighter that a normal cast-on, but produces a smooth row.
The backwards loop cast on method works by using two strands of yarn. The working yarn should be held with your left index finger, while the tail should be held with your right. This method requires you to have a loop around the knitting needle when you start knitting.
German twisted cast
German twisted-cast on is a good method to increase your knitting's stretchiness. The only problem is that you have to be able to learn how to do this technique. Be aware of how the needles point. You may feel awkward at the beginning, so pay attention to where your needles are pointed when you're practicing this technique.
The German twist cast on method, which is similar to Long Tail Casting on, adds a twist and dimension to the yarn. It results in a stronger and more flexible edging. This technique is ideal for ribbing which requires stretching. The German twist is more straightforward than the Long Tail Cast On but you need to have some experience before learning the latter.
Moebius cast on
If you've ever wanted to learn how to cast on a mobius-shaped knitting project, the Moebius cast on method is an excellent way to get started. This method involves knitting 2 loops on each cord. Next, work from the center to the outside. Finally, turn one half turn. Both cords must be parallel except for a cross-over.
Moebius cast-on method requires a circular needle long enough for you to work in the round. For this type, a 48 inch / 122cm round needle is a good choice. Be sure to pick stitches from the tips of the needles before you cast on. Next, join the stitch into the round. Cat Bordhi is a fan of this method.
Crocheted cast on
The crocheted knit cast on is a handy technique for adding stitches to a row. You can use it in back-and-forth or round knitting. When crocheting, you use a scrap of yarn to make a provisional casting-on stitch. The remainder is used for your cast-on stitch.
This method is easy to learn and is also a good option for mid-project casting on. It involves using a double-pointed needle and working with two strands of yarn. The working yarn should be wrapped around the right tip of your needle. It is then pulled through to the front.
