German Twisted Cast On

Today, I have a tutorial on the German Twisted cast on, also known as the Old Norwegian cast on. This is a cast on in the long-tail cast on family – so you’ll need a long tail and you’ll have your yarn and hands in the “slingshot” position typical of the long-tail cast on.
Here is a video tutorial:

Hopefully this is helpful!! I like to use the German Twisted cast on when I want a bit more of a decorative cast on that is a little bit more stretchy than the long-tail cast on.

Until next time, Happy Knitting!!
