Knitting Help - Portuguese Cast-On

- The Portuguese Cast-On is both a very cool technique, as well as an easy PURL-WISE long-tail CO. Unlike other long-tail cast-ons, once you finish the CO, you're ready to work a right-side row.

I don't know why I'm watching this, as Portuguese is the only technic I know, but the way you explain is so nice...
I don't cast like you, I start with the first loop on my left needle and then using the right needle I increase as many stitches as I need do start.
Omg! Every time I see the cubics platina and the marblz sets (or any KP set really), I think I look like the "in love emoji" -> 😍 my eyes turn into hearts.
It's like Knitter's Pride is the Tiffany & Co. of the knitting world. Those sets are like jewelry to me 😍
It's my favourite cast-on and I use it in any project, even when I knit with other knitting styles!
Thank you so much for this video. I watch several of your videos and you're a very good instructor - -everything is so clear! I struggle with keeping tension with my fingers for the english method and this portuguese style is much easier for me and my hands. Thank you again!!
Great videos Staci...have learned this techinique from all your excellent videos. Thank you
I always enjoy the videos that you put together this is real neat
Love this cast on Really very easy THANK YOU
It's funny to see you teaching my way of knitting (portuguese). Thank you for doing it.
Great this looks easy to do 👍🏻!!!!
I'll just try it without the knitting pin. Think it can be worked that way. TY again.
Very interesting!!! I think my son will like this method, too.
Nails always are pretty
Thank you!
Such good information.
Trying it as I am watching you and I love it! Very smooth cast on look. Going to try again the Portuguese method.
Love it coming from a Portuguese lol...awesome
Is it possible to do a German cast on Portuguese style? I saw you do this on your toddler raglan sweater. It looked so neat! Thanks!
Can you make a video on how to add a new skein of yarn while knitting the Portuguese method?
Can this CO be worked without the knitting pin ? It's a lot like the LT CO to me. TY for sharing this technique with us.
Hi do you but this round you neck after casting the n
Hello Staci!
Would you recommend this cast on for the flicking style?
Just yesterday afternoon I started knitting a cowl using the flicking style (inspired by you I must add) it's been a slow process since continental is how I learned. And I'm also using circular needles :) I'm finding it really comfortable and it does not get my fingers "numbed" after a while the way it happens when I knit in continental style.
thank you!
Yes - you can set yourself up for Portuguese knitting, complete the cast-on, then switch your working yarn back around to knit in the flicking style, no problem.
VeryPink Knits thank you so much! I'll try it with my next scarf 😘
How about a magic cast on for toe-up socks knitted inside out Portuguese style? I know -- or I think I know -- that I've knitted something tubular, stranded knitting, inside out some years ago. And now I need to revisit that due to arthritis. I suppose I could just knit the socks top down, but if that cast-on can work for knit, surely it can work for purl, too? And I don't mean the long tail one you've so kindly provided us, but whatever you call it, Turkish cast-on, Judy's magic cast-on -- aren't they all similar versions of a provisional cast-on that works for toe-up socks? I've tried and tried, but I can't figure it out.
So, are we able to use this same method if we're starting with knit stitches?
Sorry, I'm new to knitting.

hey liked your way of casting on but is slitly different from the way.I learned with my grandmother and normal portuguese woman do but liked it. thought the way I learned its faster and doesnt involve the hook or putting the line arround you neck.
CARINA I wish I could see the way your grandmother taught you!
COOL! I just noticed the cable for your Marblz. It looks like a thinner version of Denise. Are these cables hollow tubes of plastic/nylon/??? or are they coated metal, like the others? I wish I had the money to buy a set of KP's. I LOVE the sampler I got, and am partial to the cubics. Thanks, again, for the cool videos.
The Knitter's Pride cables are solid (not hollow), and pretty much the perfect combo of flexibility and slickness. This video is sponsored by Knitter's Pride, but even when KP isn't sponsoring me, I choose to use their needles. (I only promote products that I truly love.)
Thanks! I keep hoping I'll open my mailbox and find a set, but SS just doesn't stretch that far, and a .03% raise is ridiculous! Thanks, again, for the videos. I'm really excited about the Portuguese knitting. are you going to post the vid of the Portuguese lady?
No, I won't be posting the little video the gal sent me from Portugal...she sent it for my eyes only, and it's too low-resolution to include in one of my TH-cam videos.
OK, Thanks! I hate low res videos, so that's cool. Now back to my "new" knitting machine for a while.
I hang out and knit alone, so I'm not familiar with sets like the marbles. My needles are custom, though. 1 mm wide stainless steel dpn, which people really like to inspect. So I get wanting aesthetically pleasing needles. What are, in your opinion, the prettiest needles, the most unique needles, and the most useful needles?
Is there a stretchy bind off in Portuguese style?
You can do any stretchy BO in the Portuguese style.
Would this work using the magic loop?
Yes, you can work Portuguese knitting and magic loop at the same time.

what are some of the benefits of casting on purlwise?
If you are going to knit the first row and do stockinette, the first two rows will not look like garter stitch.
