Week 1: Long Tail Cast On
The most widely used cast on found in patterns today, the Long Tail cast on is a great all purpose cast on which is easy to pick up stitches out of and provides a medium level of stability to the finished edge of the garment or accessory. This class will focus on the slingshot method of Long Tail cast on, how to measure your yarn for cast on, and when to use this cast on if not listed as the preferred method.
