Reverse loop on
The easiest method to add stitches is the backwards loop cast-on method. Instead of starting with a slip-knot, you simply twist the yarn into a loop. Then, add more loops until you reach the desired number. This method is tighter than a normal cast on, but it produces a smooth row of stitches.
Backwards loop cast-on works with two strands. Your left hand holds the working yarn, and your right index finger holds the tail. When you begin knitting with this method, you should have a loop around your knitting needle.
German twisted cast
German twisted cast-on is a great method to increase the stretchiness and flexibility of your knit stitches. However, you must be able and willing to learn this technique. It is important to pay attention to the direction of your needles in order to do this. It can feel awkward at first, so pay close attention to the directions of your needles when practicing this technique.
The German twisted casting method is similar to that of the Long Tail Cast-on, but it adds extra twist to your yarn. The end result is a more durable and flexible edging. This method is particularly useful when ribbing requires stretch. The German twist is more straightforward than the Long Tail Cast On but you need to have some experience before learning the latter.
Moebius cast on
The Moebius cast-on method is a good way to start learning how to cast a mobius shaped knitting project. This method involves knitting two cords, starting at the center and working outwards. Then, twist one half turn. Each cord must be straight except for the cross-over.
Moebius cast-on method requires a circular needle long enough for you to work in the round. This type of knitting can be done well with a 48” / 122cm circular stitch needle. Pick stitches on the tips when you are casting on. The next step is to join the stitches together in the round. Cat Bordhi loves this method of knitting.
Crocheted cast on
A useful technique to add stitches in a row of knitting is the crocheted knitting casting on. It can be used in both back-and-forth and round knitting. It is used in crocheted knitting as a scrap piece to create a temporary cast-on and then the rest is used to make the cast-on.
This method is very easy to master and can be used for mid-project casting. This involves working with two strands and a double-pointed knitting needle. The working yarn can then be looped around a tip of the right-hand needle, and it is pulled through the project.
