Soooo glad I found this video! Not only did you show me how to join in the round provisionally, but you gave me a few great tips as well! Thank you!!! 😊
This is a wonderful video! I just learned a provisional cast on but my way was much clumsier than this! Thank you. I also love that you use a lifeline (I'm using those for the first time too). That makes total sense to protect that first row! I'm doing a cable pattern for the band of a hat, joining with a Kitchener stitch and then picking up the stitches with circular needles to finish the top of the cap. A lot are new challenges, but I'm excited. Thanks for these excellent tips and the clear explanation!
Thank you! Your instructions were so easy to follow and cleared up the confusion I had about how to go about this. Also, I liked the tip about adding an extra stitch for joining.
Thank you soooo very much for this great tutorial…your gentle voice and informative steps make it easy to understand and follow…will definitely share this video with fellow knitters…
OMG Thank you so so much for this video! Your explanations made it so easy for me to use this cast-on and NOT twist my stitches (which is something that always happens to me usually, which is why I prefer DPNs over Magic Loop. ;) You're the best!
I tried three methods and failed each of them with a project with a whopping 375 stitches, which took a lot of time and a lot of curses. I love this method you showed, it seems much more "durable" and I hope this one will work for me. 🙏
Thank you for the lovely feedback. I am currently working on a video on kitchener stitch in the round which will cover how I undo my provisional cast on so be on the lookout for that in a week or so
Como terminar a técnica, onde está a parte 2 do vídeo? Sou iniciante e cheguei agora no seu canal e já me inscrevi, obrigado pelo canal e por compartilhar.
The fishing line is not required by any means but I personally like to use it to create a life line which makes it significantly easier to pick up your stitches after you have unraveled the provisional cast on
By extra crochet stitches at the end do you mean the 1 extra stitch or the 10 that make up the tail? If it is just the 1 extra one you simply knit it together with the 1st stitch to close the loop. If it is the tail you just leave them alone until you go to unravel the cast on. I have a video that shows this called Kutcher Stitch in the Round
This is a really informative and clear video, thank you! I found the tips on using a lifeline particularly useful. Have you ever used the hole in the interchangeable tips for your lifeline? I have tried before and it has never worked, so I will try this method. Also, would this method work when you only have a small amount of stitches (my pattern only has 54), or would I have to use DPN's?
Thank you for your wonderful comment. I have used the hole before, and it works well, but I personally prefer adding it after the fact. For a small amount of stitches, I use this method but in magic loop using a large circumference like 32-40" depending on the amount of stitches. I don't have a tutorial on magic loop yet, but I plan on adding one soon. Tin Can Knits has a great picture tutorial on their blog if you are not familiar with using magic loop, but it's great for circular knitting with a small amount of stitches. Happy knitting
Great question, I probably should have included that in the video. Simply pick up your yarn you will be knitting with and leaving a nice long tail, I leave about 8" (20cm) start knitting or whatever stitch is required. Your first stitch will be a bit lose but once you've woven it in you won't notice a thing.
great tutorial! I have one question though, I know the lifeline is optional, but when I do use it, does it have to be fishing-line? Or can it also be some scrapyarn of sewing yarn?
Sorry it took me a few days to get back to you. Scrap yarn is perfect to use as a life line. I hope to like fishing line because I know it won't snag on anything and is very affordable. I find sometimes my scrap yarn felts a bit to the other yarn and can make it a bit tricky when pulling it out at the end. Just make sure you are using smooth yarn and you should be just fine. Happy knitting
I'm not sure I 100% understand your question, but at the end once you have joined in the round you just start knitting however the pattern instructs you to. If you are asking how to join in the round it is described in the video but here are the written instructions: Careful not to twist your stitches join in the round by slipping the 1st stitch from the L needle onto the R needle, PSSO on the R needle and place BORM
Soooo glad I found this video! Not only did you show me how to join in the round provisionally, but you gave me a few great tips as well! Thank you!!! 😊
Thank you so much. This is the clearest demonstration I have found. Gives me the confidence to use it on the neckline of my next project!
Great tutorial. This technique is much easier than the one I watched where you knit through crochet loops!

Thank you! Yes your video was very helpful!
Yes! Thank you for this! I’ve wanted to learn the crochet method for a while and you made it so easy! Thank you!!
Thank you for this!! I love the tip about the extra stitch. 😊
Great cast on with nice clear instructions
That was really helpful and clear! Thank you!
Thank you for a really clear tutorial ❤
Very good instructions 😊
Your tutorial was very helpful! Thank You! 😊

Very nice. Thank you. I would find a video of how you recover the working stitches from the provisional cast on very helpful too.
Thank you for the lovely feedback. I am currently working on a video on kitchener stitch in the round which will cover how I undo my provisional cast on so be on the lookout for that in a week or so
Thank you so much!!
Excellent! Thank you

This is difficult to do left handed! I will keep trying!
I loved your video, the only thing I didn't get was the fishing line what it's for?
The fishing line is not required by any means but I personally like to use it to create a life line which makes it significantly easier to pick up your stitches after you have unraveled the provisional cast on
strange crochet method: my hook usually goes around the yarn in a different direction.
Can you make a video about what to do with the extra crochet stitches in the end? Please

How do I join the yarn in round after provisional cast on with crochet hook?
