My favorite tip for casting on a lot of stitches with the long tail cast on: use both ends of the yarn ball. You'll never run out of tail before you finish.
When casting on to work in the round cast on 1 extra stitch. Then when you join the 2 ends together knit the first and last stitch together. This closes up the gap you sometimes get at the join site.
Just discovered your podcast today. Great to get a kiwi take on knitting. Have been binge watching your past episodes as I knit. Keep-cup tip - fantastic! Immediately went and got one I have with a leaky lid and it works perfectly. Thanks so much. Keep up the great work.
Thank you so much!! Glad that you found them helpful, that's so great to hear :) enjoy watching my other episodes! I love watching video podcasts as I knit too xx
My best tip is using colourful paper clips as stitch markers - cheap, flat and in many colours. Greetings from UK xx
Those are great tips too!

Diana that is genius 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 will definitely use that tip, thank you!!
I also check thrift store clothing for nice buttons. Those can be purchased cheaper than 2 new buttons. Love your podcast!

I normally stitch over the tail on the first row but I didn’t think to continue onto other rows too...thank you!!
Glad to help!! Such a good way to really secure it before trimming :)
