Beginning Knitting - Casting On and Off (Long-tail)

A simple tutorial on using the most common cast on, and how to cast off once you're finished knitting.

The method I use here is called the "long-tail" or "slingshot" cast on. I'm using black yarn on size 11US (8.0mm) needles.

For the cast off I'm using the same yarn on size 13US (9.0mm) needles.

Hope you find this helpful!
