Provisional Cast On In The Round Using a Crochet Hook
This tutorial is designed to show you how to work a provisional cast on in the round using a crochet hook. There are many different ways to work a provisional cast on, and this is my favorite because it keeps your stitches neat and tidy and I find it to be the most straight forward. I hope you like this method as much as I do and use it for your own projects! Happy knitting, my friends!

Can’t see it. Too much verbiage on the screen. You need to place the picture more in the middle of the screen
@@knittingknut This is a UA-cam short. Full tutorial available on my channel as mentioned in the caption. 😊
This was so helpful! One of the best I have seen. I think I finally understand short rows! ❤
Fabulous idea!! Love it. Much easier way to frog! Wow many thanks. I love your quick bits too. ❤
Thank you so much for this visual, now I get how the German short rows work!
Thank you so much!!!!
Well, you’ve explained this complicated process so perfectly!!! THANK YOU!!! I’m on my second sweater using German short rows (different patterns) and have been dreading this part, but now I feel like I have what I need to tackle. I loved that you used contrasting colors as it makes it much more tangible. Thank you again!!
So easy! Fantastic!😊
brilliant :)
I am so excited to find your hats. For years I have been learning and knitting socks. I need small projects because I spend so much time in the hospital or physicians’ offices with my daughter. My arthritic hands need a rest from very tiny needles. Hats are small with lots of variety. It’s exciting to try knitting hats and being able to add color. I have ordered your book and I can hardly wait for it to come. I prefer to knit with circular needles and use mostly magic loop. I will purchase 16” larger knitting needles once I see which sizes you use the most. In reading a sample piece of your book, you mention 13 and 15 as the usual size. What is the usual type of yarn. I’ve only used fingering yarn for the last few years. I’ve never used anything beyond size 7 needles for slippers. Would I use more often a worsted weight or a DK weight? I purchase most yarn from Knit Pick. I mostly knit for the homeless and children in need. This would be great for special needs children as a prize. Or for homeless spending a night in a shelter. Any advice you have I would be grateful to receive. I’m 81 years young. And no longer able to drive. This is so perfect for me. Gives me a new purpose and excitement. I purchase yarn on sale. So I try to get a good amount of sale yarn 3 times per year in various colors. I like solids bright for everything except socks. Thank you so much for your lovely pictures and understandable instruction. Jacqueline Dooley, New Mexico
@@JacqueD75 Awww, thank you! The needle sizes and yarn weights range in my book from hat to hat. Once the book arrives you’ll be able to see all of them and decide which one to make first! Thank you for your support. Enjoy the book! ❤️
What you knitting is absolutely gorgeous.
Can’t see it because there’s too much writing on top covering your hands.
@@Duckster183 Full tutorial available on my channel. This is a UA-cam short. 😊
This is a fantastic tip. You get another chance to catch your floats if you forget first time round, or if they seem a little long!!! ❤
Finally I understand short rows, your explanations were the best! Thank you so much!
@@boulbon08 Yay! You’re welcome! 🥰
This video was such a huge help. Thank you‼️‼️
@@lauriepark808 Yay! You’re welcome. 🥰
I am so glad I found your channel! I have been intimidated to try color work because every tutorial I saw is knitted with either two hands or with the left hand. I throw with the right. You have solved my problem. Thank you so much.
@@beckywilliams9703 Yay! So glad! 🥰
This was so incredibly helpful. I was totally flummoxed by the instructions for my sweater. You made it so understandable. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
@@elizabethhawkins1767 Yay! I’m so glad! Thank you so much for your kind words. 🥰
Do you always knit the same number of stitches after the stitch marker like you do in this video? I’m confused bc my pattern just says work 52 stitches, turn work, GSR, work 40 stitches turn.
@@allisonforsman6657 Hi there! In many cases the short rows are symmetrical, but for some pieces they may not be. I would definitely follow the instructions in your pattern. 😊
Thank you sharing this! I'm about to start my first top-down raglan sweater with German short row shaping, and I almost chickened out! Starting out with the diagram was just perfect - by the time I got to the end of the video I felt much less poultry-like. You rock!!!
@@ChristinaS-k4k Awww, love hearing this. Thank you so much for your kind words and happy knitting with your sweater!
I personally voted for Trump but this is nice!
Thank you so much for the drawing, I finally understand what this is all about now. The different colour yarn was really helpful too! I feel I can do this now, you're a great teacher 🎉
Love it..thanks for making the video.

Wow, why’d you waste yarn on a deep state puppet whose only goal is to destroy humanity and destroy our beautiful country! She’s the most toxic person in politics! Full of hateful, racist rhetoricÈ
Courtney, any chance you can add a tutorial on how to TINK a K1B and a P1B? Thank you.
Brilliantly simple. Love it x 4:33
This is so good!!
Awesome .I love your UA-cam Channel.
Knowing me I would just forget them
Okay I see I had missed a step when I did this. I didn't pull a bit extra yarn on the float. I'll do this again and do that.
I tried it and can't say I like it much. Went back to trapping my floats.
@@stitchy_linn Definitely use whatever method works best for you! I find this way to be the easiest and most intuitive. 😊
This is really handy, but I would have loved to see what the backside looks like with these caught floats. The video was really crisp too, and the bracelet logo placement is very clever!
Music is not helpful.
@@MorganHertzen This is a UA-cam short designed as a little snippet with music. Full tutorial available as well with no music. 😊
This was such a weird comment. There's a mute button.
@ good point. I shouldn’t have said anything so vulgar.
@ i shouldn’t have said anything so vulgar. I do have a mute button. I apologize.
Excellent tutorial.
How do I keep track of the number of rounds if it keeps shifting by one? So say I have 20 rounds alternating colors, that means I will have shifted by 20 stitches? Thank you for this!
@@JulieBarich Hey there! You can just move the stitch marker as you begin each new color to mark the beginning of the next round. Or you can count the stripes-each completed stripe is a round. Shifting the marker one stitch to the left won’t affect the stripes as you’re knitting in a spiral when you knit in the round. Hope this helps! 😊
@@flynnknit ok so then 20 rows later I would be shifted by 20 stitches and that’s where I would start my decreases. Not 20 rounds from where I cast on? This would add some height, wouldn’t it? Guessing 1/2 round but not sure if my Math is right. Sorry for all the questions. Just don’t want to get 20 rounds in and mess up 😂
@@JulieBarich Any extra height would def depend on what weight of yarn you’re using. 😊 I think once you get started it will make more sense. 😊
Thank you for the visual. You made this less intimidating.
Fabulous tutorial. You totally demystified German Short Rows for me. So clear and easy to understand. Thank you.
Thank you! This was lovely. The colours were helpful and I really appreciated the description of what we are doing and why at the beginning
Thank you so much! I have been searching for a video that I could understand regarding learning how to knit German Short Rows. I am in the process of knitting my first sweater and one of the first things I came across after the neck was German Short rows. I made it through step by step with your video. Thank you again. I'm now a new subscriber to your channel.
@@lwright622 Yay! So happy to hear this! Thank you! 🥰
The clearest explanation I've come across so far. I was intimidated at first, but after this video, i feel confident enough to start my project. Thank you so much ❤
Best video on short rows in the round hands down.
Thanks!
@@dianekurzontkowski705 Awww, thank you so much for your support! ❤️❤️❤️
Another well explained tutorial. Thank you very much!!
I finally understand the concept of German short rows!! This is the BEST tutorial I've seen yet!! Thank you for Great tutorial!!
Does the same approach work dor purlside? Thanks!!!
Thanks for the information I appreciate it. Do you have a video to show the start of the pattern I'm wanting to do a sweater border using the pattern
Thank you! Omg, I have watched tons of tutorials and yours to me is the best. Nice job. Not so scary now.
