Interweave Knits Workshop: 45+ Knitted Cast-Ons and Bind-Offs with Ann Budd (Video Download)

Part One: Cast-ons

Learn standard cast-ons such as the backward-loop, chained-edge, knitted and cabled cast-ons, long-tail method, and the Old Norwegian twisted cast-on with knitting expert Ann Budd as your guide. Then take it one step further with more advanced cast-ons such as ribbed cast-ons, decorative picot, fringe, braid and provisional cast-ons, three different circular cast-on methods, and much more.

Learn cast-on techniques used around the world with clear instruction and demonstration so you can choose what’s best to get any knitted project started.

Part Two: Bind-offs

Ann Budd guides you with finishing techniques and demonstrates a variety of bind-off methods. Learn standard bind-offs, such as the suspended or crocheted technique, as well as extra-flexible, extra-tight, and ribbed bind-offs. Finishing techniques can make or break your final piece, and in this portion of Ann’s workshop she’ll demonstrate how to join two pieces of fabric together, the Kitchener stitch, 3-needle bind-off, and more. Plus, you’ll learn decorative methods for picot and I-cord finishings to give your knitwear an added flair.
