How To Do The Long Tail Cast On

I use the long tail cast on method more than any other knitting cast on technique. I'm not sure if that's just because of the projects that I'm doing or maybe because it's the first cast on method I ever learned, but that's just how it goes.

To determine how much of a tail to leave before making the slipknot, I usually cast on 5 or 10 stitches then measure how much yarn that took up and multiply out to determine the length needed (plus a little extra just to be safe).

Thanks for watching!!!

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