Cat Bordhi demonstrates Judy Becker's Magic Cast-On
Posted by: catbordhi
Video duration: 580 seconds
I think this is the best provisional cast-on on the planet. It was invented by the ingenious Judy Becker of Portland, Oregon, and first released to the world by Knitty.com. You'll find it used throughout my latest book, NEW PATHWAYS FOR SOCK KNITTERS, for everything from toe-up socks to cobblestone cuffs. I love it!
