Learn how to knit Knitrino's Extra Magic Cast On, the best cast on that simplifies Judy's Magic Cast On by avoiding the need to work the second half of the stitches through the back loop. This method is ideal for magic loop knitting, especially for projects such as sock toes. This video provides a detailed, step-by-step guide for both right-handed and left-handed mirror knitters, ensuring everyone can master this technique. Right Handed: 0:00 Left Handed: 1:46 To achieve this knitting technique, start by holding a long circular needle parallel with a slip knot on the top needle. Place the yarn tail over your index finger and the working yarn over your thumb. Wrap the yarn on your index finger around the bottom needle from bottom to top then wrap the yarn on your thumb around the top needle from bottom to top. Ensure the yarn always moves from bottom to top around each needle. Once all stitches have been cast on, rotate the needles 180 degrees to work the first round.
