German Twisted Cast On

This cast on provides the perfect balance between stretch and structure. It is similar to the Long Tail Cast On but each stitch gets an extra twist, giving it that touch of added stretch that makes it so wonderful.

I use the German Twisted Cast on for almost anything that needs a firm but stretchy edge – for socks, hats and gloves it is my number one go to cast on method.

I have also heard this cast on referred to as the Old Norwegian Cast On.
