The Turkish Cast-On
Sounds mysterious, doesn't it? Actually, it's a method of casting on stitches when one is knitting toe-up socks, and I learned it yesterday. I say learned it because I can't say that I mastered it, and the toe of the sock I am knitting looks a little dodgy. I'll have to knit a bit more before I decided if I have to start over or not.
The instructions in the sock book I'm using were so frustrating that I wanted to fling the entire mess across the room. Luckily, you can find anything on YouTube, and I found a fairly straightforward demo of the Turkish cast-on there.
