I loved the video. So clear and precise!! You are a very good teacher. I am self taught and I remember getting frustrated with it and would throw it across the room...then go pick it up and start over again! It takes practice. I am not the best knitter just try and try over and over and over until I get it.
Thank you so so much for this! 💞 This cast on is a real doozy, that's for sure. I love it and hate it at the same time. 😆 I can't even tell you how many times I've just about thrown it across the room too. 😂
I can sure relate to that feeling, because I felt like that when trying to learn how to knit socks with dpns as a new knitter many years ago. I actually screamed into a pillow a few times, lol! I had no knowledge of either of the magic loop methods at the time, and I am glad that I didn't, because I would have relied too much on magic loop without having the option to freely choose, had I never learned to be comfortable with dpns. We just need to allow ourselves more grace when we are challenged. 🤗
Holly, thanks for making this video! The initial stitches would be very fiddle, and your tutorial will go a long way towards making sure all knitters are aware of how to cast on for the musselburgh hat!
Hi, thanks for this. I am a visual learner, and it was great . I did start over 6 times but got there in the end and am now in the round . Easy to follow, and we'll explain.❤
Thank you so much! I’m so glad the video was helpful. I struggle with this cast on all the time. It’s a real doozy! 😜 It gets easier after doing it a bunch of times, but it’s still difficult for sure. 😝 I love how tight it gets the hole in the center, though!
It feels easier to keep it super simple to get the gist of this thing, doesn’t it?! Especially before starting the Musselburgh hat pattern. Going through the steps and solidifying the idea in my brain before beginning the pattern made a big difference for me to understand what in the world was going on with this cast on. 🤣
@@knottedrealmdo you continue with the kfb throughout the increase rounds instead of the other increase ps the pattern calls for? Kfb is so much easier. Does it give the same look? Does it matter? LOL thanks for the video
My directions for rnd 3 are different. It is " (k1, m1L, k2, m1R, k1) 4 times". Have you substituted the kfb for those? I am using the musselburgh pattern from Ysolda and now don't know how to proceed after rnd 4. Should I restart and do what the pattern says for rnd 3 or somehow adapt the pattern using kfb instead?
Hi Holly, thank you for your video. I have a question I have the pattern in front of me and on round 3 you do it differently as regards the increases. You do kfb instead of m1L and m1R. Please note that I am a complete beginner. Why do this? 😊
Sorry Holly it’s me again, after my last comment moving forward to round 5 are you basically just replacing m1L and m1R with kfb’s? Which I believe will make it easier 😊
I loved the video, I have tried many times to do the Musselburgh hat and not yet succeeded. I would love to see you transfer them to the circular needles is there any special techniques? I’m a beginner to knitting 🧶 😊Thank you 😊

I just found you today and I am just starting this project. You are terrific to listen to and watch. Thank you 🙏!
Thank you so so much for this! 🩷
Thank you, thank you. Yours is the first that I think I can do and I've watched many.
Aw thank you so much! ☺️ I’m glad watching it was helpful. 🫶🏻

Thank you so much! I’m so glad it’s helpful 🩷
Thank you so much for this. This is by and far the best cast on tutorial I have seen for this hat. 🎉
Very thorough thank you!
I was just about to give up on making the Musselburgh Hat. I'm glad I found you 🙂
I think I might be able to do the pinhole cast on now. Lol, it certainly is a struggle! 😅

Can’t wait to get out my needles! I love the fact that you aren’t using the M1L and M1R.

What is the technique to use Kfb instead of k1L or R? Do kfb every 2nd and 3rd stitch of each group of 4 stitches?
@@knottedrealmdo you continue with the kfb throughout the increase rounds instead of the other increase ps the pattern calls for? Kfb is so much easier. Does it give the same look? Does it matter? LOL thanks for the video
Hi, I loved your video. I was able to knit along with my flexiflips. Amazing tutorial, thank you so much ❤❤❤
Thanks so much! So glad it helped! 🫶🏻❤️🧶
Thank you this was clear but I am going to have to watch again just to get it lol
This was so helpful. Thank you for demonstrating this technique. I basically cast on my stitches at the same time you did.

I too noticed that round 3 is different from the pattern

Very good tutorial. I didn’t like the mus. hat because of the cast on. Thank you.

I like the container you put your needles in. Where can I get a pattern for it? Thank you
