Knitting On Continental Method

You need to have Flash Player 10 or higher to play this video.

This is a nice method for teaching a new knitter, since it’s just the knit stitch but without sliding the stitch off the left needle. It’s a lovely cast on. I find it easier to work than Cable cast-on, and like to substitute it when that method is called for.
