Long tail cast on - Knitting Paradise - Forum

I have been knitting for a very long time and have always used the cable cast on but quite a few newer patterns call for the long tail method.

I haven't used this method before and was wondering what are the advantages of doing so?

Learn Something New: The Tubular Cast-On - Interweave

Most of us use the long-tail cast-on for just about everything we knit.

There are a few things, though, that benefit from a special cast-on, and it's good to have a few in your repertoire.

The tubular cast-on is one of those. It's very stretchy, so it's useful for socks, mittens, gloves, and hats. It's also the perfect beginning for ribbing, which it mimics. The edge looks rolled over; it appears...

Tubular cast-on without the waste

Finishing touches are special, because they require...

Crochet rib Tubular Cast On

However when I was ready to pull the scrap yarn out I always had a bit of a problem it would not just "unzip" like I thought it would I would always have to cut and pull it out stitch by stitch.
