Having the 2 tubular rows made before binding off makes this look exactly like I want it too look. It's so much better than other methods I've seen. Thanks so much for the wonderful tutorial.
Irina, I can not tell you how much I appreciate this video. For the first time, this made complete sense to me! You and I knit the same, and it helped me so much to watch you do this. I will be forever grateful, as I love the look of this technique, and used it to finish my sweater cuffs. Also your voice is very nice and pleasant to hear. Thank you. Thank you so much!🥰
Awesome explicative video. For the last step: I found it hard to find the slipped off purl stitch at the back for the second passage with the needle, until I started adding a marker to that purl stitch right before slipping it off the needle. It made it easy to find it after and made the whole last step a breeze. Thank you for your videos! I was able to successfully make a tubular cast-on & cast-off by following them.
This is a very well explained video on how to do a tubular cast off. I’m going to try it on a toe up sock that I’m knitting because the finish looks so beautiful and I am making 2x2 ribbing. Just curious, we’re you using 2 circular needles to do this or just one? Thanks so much for sharing.
Ribs 2x2 and 3x3 can be smoothly transitioned into rib 1x1 to finish with the tubular rounds. Any irregular knit x purl combination will not look as smoothly when transitioned to rib 1x1. Also, you would need a total # of stitches that can be divided by 2. But, on the other hand, the imperfect transition might be looked at as an intentional design decision.
It might help sometimes to increase the number of stitches for the ribbing of a cuff of a sock, but tubular is essentially a doubled up stockinette, so as such it’s only minimally stretchy.

Thank you so much, Evelyn! I used a single long circular needle - magic loop.
Is there any way to do this cast off for a knit 1, purl 2 rib?
Ribs 2x2 and 3x3 can be smoothly transitioned into rib 1x1 to finish with the tubular rounds. Any irregular knit x purl combination will not look as smoothly when transitioned to rib 1x1.

Tried tubular bind off for my 2 pairs socks, realise isn’t elastic. Sorry
