Tidying up cast on

2 replies

Hi, I am looking for advice on how to tidy up my cast on / off - I know I need to experiment with different cast ons really but seeing as I already have a project on the go, I was wondering if there was a way to make it look neater and not so ruffled. And then when I cast off I could do the same thing so they match. I wondered if I could perhaps sew over it somehow.

it’s loom knit and I know some loom knitters will just pull the yarn through the loops until it’s all tightened up but whenever I do it it gets stuck halfway through so I need to try something else!

Do you crochet? A round of UK double crochet or slip stitches... or if you knit you could pick up stitches and do a knitted I cord bind off.

I don’t do either but actually think I could probably work out the crochet so that’s a good idea, I’ll have to make a little practice piece to try it on
