The Braided Cast On

Welcome to the Golden Apples Video Showcase

This blog is a secondary blog, designed to make finding and veiwing my knitting videos easier than ever.
This page contains the newest video. (posted.)--The Braided Long Tail Cast On

There is a link on the Index back to this page, and back to the Golden Apples blog.


The Braided Cast On is a variation of the Long Tail Cast On.

It can be worked with 2 yarns (both the same color) or with a number of yarns, in different colors. --5 colors/yarns is about the limit, after that, the yarns that create the braids become too long, and become likely to catch on things and snag.

This cast on demonstrates working with 3 strands/colors.

This Cast On looks lovely when paired with Latvian Braids (part 1, part 2)
