Thank you. I am really quite amazed that you still take the time to reply to us. I've already completed one moebius scarf, I just want to make one smaller. Thank you so very much for sharing with us. This video is what inspired me to return to knitting. So I could say "it's all your fault" that I spend so much time knitting rather than chasing dust bunnies around the house. thank you again.
Complete WOW experience. Knitted two moebius scarfs according to written instructions, and they were a desaster.With you video - no problem. Well explained, nice to listen to. Thanks a LOT.
I found your video thru a pattern I saw in Ravelry. Once I saw it, I went out and got the circular needles I needed for my yarn. I was dying to try it and now that I've started a moebius, I am loving this method! Thank you for sharing it!
Cat Bordhi.... you are AMAZING. I have been petrified of the Moebius for nearly a decade and it is time to conquer this fear. Your video shows me I can do it - well the video and a local community school where I will take the class in person. Thanks for your great video!!!
I went through cancer treatment around the same time you did (well, part of it. I was diagnosed right before the pandemic shut down happened). I’m under 40 and I’ve had 3 cancers, so I’m well over it at this point. I was so sad to hear you passed (back when the announcement went out), and I felt a small kinship with you bc of that shared experience outside of our knitting. You are remembered and beloved in our community, and I thank you for your help back when I started in 2008. 🕊️ 🕯️ 👣
Thanks Cat for being so patient and down-to-earth in your explanations. Even though English is not my first language I am able to get your stuff. And I like your witty humorous take on everything, too.
Lockdown led me to this amazing technique - thank you so much for sharing this online. I am indeed addicted and downloaded your ebook. Thank you again!
you have an amazing mind. I love this cast on and refer to it for my moebius pattern. I love the moebius and it really is an amazing thing, especially when you knit it with a reversible fabric that has a different look on both sides.
I never heard of this before and now I can't wait to try it. I need to purchase a long enough circular needle first. Ohh can't wait! Thanks for the great video!
I just love how you explained MOEBIUS (with the strip of paper and the sentence) without dropping a stitch and never missing a beat! You make a great teacher and I thank you for this. Someone has a Moebius hat on here with awesome trim on it but they specify that they don't do patterns, just sell hats. It is Strawberry Couture's Stitch or something. I love that pattern and would like to make one of these.
Great explanation. Thank you for sharing this technique for free. I found this technique on another you tube site but did not understand the hows and whys. After making to cowls, each one ending up a bit different and wondering why the knits and purls were not working out I found your video! Now I so completely understand that I can now make a cowl with the stitch that I want and have it look like it should. I also understand now from your video how to count the rows. No one else said where to put the marker and how to count the rows. After two cowls, one without and one with beads, I know my next one will be the best. Again Thank you for your time.
Thank you so much for posting this! Other videos will say that you need a twist but don't clarify that it is the cables, and not the cast on row of stitches themselves, that are doing the twisting.
Outstanding lesson. Very clear and easy to follow. I like your manner of speaking. I have to say, I loved seeing your toes at the bottom. I can't tell you how many times I've taken a photo only to notice my toes in the same spot when I look at the photo!
I'm soooo grateful for your demo of mobius and the knitting style I hadn't tried before -- continental? You explained everything so well, even possible confusions; it looked easy and made perfect sense. When I tried, it was pretty smooth sailing. The only hold up, like you said, was making sure of cast-ons and the cords lining up but that's usual. Many thanks! Now onto the Cashmere Shawl
You are a genius! And I am hooked on Moebius knitting and have a few more lined up. I was able to find your first book. The trickiest part is counting and beginning/ending the 1st round. But after frogging 2 times, I finally found the side stitch that needed to be pickup and worked and understand the method. Amazing how it all works out. Love this technique. Thank you.
I have to say also with a migrane today i felt an easy mobious would be just the brainless knitting i needed today..your voice is a pleasure to listen to and now off to find your books. will also see if u have a download to purchase...so i can start today
Thank you for creating and sharing such a clear, concise video of a technique there heretofore has mystified me! My knitting knowledge has been increased! Now I know what to do with the sock yarn leftovers I've been saving.
Thank you so much for this wonderfully clear video and explanation! This is the most challenging knitting I have ever undertaken, but with your help, I an going to have some AMAZING gifts!
Absolutely wonderful tutorial. I've been printing off complicated mobius patterns...now I can toss those! I can't wait to make your pattern. Thank you so much! I'll be looking for your other patterns and books.
THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR KNOWLEDGE! for FREE. I am so thankful for everyone who shares there techniques in knitting before the craft evaporates in this digital age. Once I learn enough to share- I plan on doing it. (still a beginner :>) hugZ amy
Hi Cat! You are truly a delight! Thanks for your clear and friendly instructions...you simplified the Mobius cast on and I'm ready to begin my first pro
SO COOL. I barely know how to knit, but I am totally going to try this just because of its sheer awesomeness. And thanks to this extremely clear video, I probably will even be able to actually do it!
Cat muchísimas gracias por tu clara explicación, me has ayudado muchísimo. Tengo tiempo intentando entender este montaje de puntos para un moebius y no había encontrado un tutorial adecuado para mí. Bendiciones
This is the weirdest video I've watched, haha. I loved it. You are a wonderful teacher. Were you ever a teacher as profession? I understood everything, & I loved how you explained it all; & you even made me laugh, too. :) I started knitting when I was only 5, & I even used to sell sweaters. However, due to illness & disability, I was away from knitting for over 25 years. I just returned this year & have been re-learning everything. I'm doing OK, but I am astounded at the changes in knitting. What has been going on all this time, lol? There are so many new things. I love it, but I have to admit I'm a bit intimidated. I've never heard of Moebius knitting, but I look forward to trying it. Maybe not in 2018, as I need to learn a bit more first. But I will be saving your video for the time when I am ready for it. Thank you for such an easy-to-follow video. You made such a complex stitch seem quite easy. :)
Thanks, Cat. You are a wonderful instructor. I have recently used this method for provisional cast on. Thank you so much for the education. Very helpful.
Just finished my very first Moebius scarf....created with your help...thank you...I used thick natural wool and it came out absolutely fantastic. Your instructions are easy (and clear) to follow and I enjoy your voice....and of course, your knowledge. Thank you again....starting on number two...
Wow! This looks amazing to me and I can't wait to try it. Even though it looks complicated at the beginning, I always like a challenge and look forward to starting a new project with this cast on. Thank you.
In the video which helps greatly, you put the market on the right needle but say that you are putting it on th left. I bought your book because someone knit the reversible lotus blossom hat for my daughter and she loved it but lost it. So I'm going to make another one her. The knit shop in Evanston, IL, where I bought your book (CloseKnit) directed me to the video which as I said helps greatly.
I'm heading to the craft store to get a longer circular needle, can't wait to start a moebius! I love how you can see Cat's toes at the bottom of the screen. :)
Super clear video, thank you so much! I have a size 11, 47 inch needle so I will give this a go with some of my chunky hand-painted hand-spun. Excited to see how it goes. I have your lovely sock book, learned on circs, have never done DPN's. You are in my neck of the woods too, though I am on the mainland. :) Oh and I read your fiction book, long ago now. Loved it. Maybe more some day? I will keep my eye open.
I have made a couple of these cowls but have given them to friends.. Now I need to make me one! One of my next adventures is to knit my first pair of socks.. and I think that the Coriolis sock sounds easy enough for a first attempt. I just saw it on a rerun of Knitty Gritty. I am excited to give it a try. I've all the ingredients for the attempt except for the actual pattern and the courage, but I've ordered a book that is supposed to have it so I'll get over my sock phobia!
Wow! To repeat what others have said, "Wow!" I've made mobius strips before- I think they explain infinity and eternity. And now I may have a more earthbound, practical use for it. I may even finally get to use the circular needle I once purchased and had no clue how to use. What would happen if I wanted to make a cap with this stitch? Your video was about the best I've seen, clear, easy to see and not daunting. Thank you very much. I bookmarked it.
Great video Cat and I love your book "A Treasury of Magical Knitting". I was hoping to find a youtube video after my first very confusing attempt at following the instructions in the book. And my first attempt was with Denise kneedles and uggghh... very frustrating, the cast on was way too tight! So I switched to the longest Addi Turbo kneedles I had on hand and success! It's fun and I can't wait to see what my first project ends up looking like! A nice "twist" for my knitting hobby!
Thank you so much for that tutorial! You're a great teacher-- eloquent, calm, and you make it look so easy and fun! I'm going to buy some cable needles and try this out! And thank you for using that thick yarn; it was very easy to see and understand what you were doing!
Your video is amazing (and I like your humour :D ). Right now I'm creating a scarf on 100cm needles. I don't know if it'll be long enough to go around the neck twice, but as you said, I'm just trying out something new. I'm adding a second colour after some (complete) rounds and I think that'll compliment the Möbius style pretty well :) Thank you very much!
This is a *very* good introduction into moebius knitting, thank you! Even with a head cold I managed to cast on without a hitch and knit myself a nice neck warmer. Quite the cure for the common cold, if I do say so myself! ;)
Loved this tutorial! I had to watch it a few times but once I got the hang of it felt it was well worth it. Completed a headband and then a Shoulder warmer. Thank you Cat.
This is a great vidio. I detected one error, when Cat put the stitch marker on her needle she said put it on the LEFT needle. She actually put it on the right needle. I am still looking forward to trying a moebius cowl.
Hope you are seeing this as I just now have the same question you have. Just learned this technique tonight and noticed after a full round where you come to the marker the stitches do indeed change as they are purled and now knit even though we are knitting from the beginning. Hope someone notices these posts and can help us understand.
Best thing to do is try it. I tried it and could not make it work. I tried a bit larger and it now works. I do believe that to make something useful you will need 40 inches or 47 inches. Something fairly long. I am using 36 inches but am doing a "nothing" project just to learn the technique. I learn a lot just from trial and error so I would recommend you try it out as a learning piece first?
Thank you so much for this video, you explain everything so well and I do like your instruction on making a paper mobius because I like to know how things work :)
Hi Cat, Thank you for your video. I wonder as you have knitted so many socks if you have ever tried to cast on for a Moebius using Judy's magic cast on? It works a treat and I'm just finishing a scarf using this method. I tried that before I saw this video so will try your method next. What I like about these methods is that there is no visible cast on edge. Thanks again.
Easy cast on, compared to other mobius cast ons. My pattern is a 3x3 check, but when I finished my first row (K3 P3 K3 P3, etc), the K3 looked like a pearl 3. Not sure if what I should do next, I have 2 more rows, then switch to P3 K3 P3 K3. Hmm.
Great video Cat and I love your book "A Treasury of Magical Knitting". I was hoping to find a youtube video after my first very confusing attempt at following the instructions in the book. And my first attempt was with Denise kneedles and uggghh... very frustrating, the cast on was way too tight! So I switched to the longest Addi Turbo kneedles I had on hand and success! It's fun and I can't wait to see what my first project ends up looking like! A nice "twist" for my knitting hobby! :o)
Lovely instructions. It's a shame there is no information regarding the number of stitches, but understandable, since there's a book by the author. The cast-on is easy, once you pick up the rhythm. One way to check oneself on the cast on is to pay attention to the first row - one stitch "wants" to be knitted in front, and the other one - in back, Thanks.
I followed your video and it worked like a charm! Unfortunately, I didn't think about the moebius cowl pattern soon enough. The fabric was a seed stitch through the center. Now I have a line of knit stitch down the middle. I still love it! Could I have started the first row with a k, p instead of just k? I haven't tried this again, but I have a friend starting a moebius cowl for the first time, which brought it all back.
when i did the moebius, the pattern starts right after the cast on....i tweaked it just a bit because i didn't like the center seam..... the cast on calls for 80, i then placed a marker.... the first 80 is one side, the second 80 is the other.....what i did was the first half i did knit, the second half i purled. you still have a changeover, but it's much more subtle.....the pattern is exactly the same, just one side is knits, the other purls..... very easy pattern and works up soooooo quickly!!!! file:///C:/Users/THEKNI~1/AppData/Local/Temp/Moebius-Cowl-3.0.pdf

Hi pretty
I went through cancer treatment around the same time you did (well, part of it. I was diagnosed right before the pandemic shut down happened). I’m under 40 and I’ve had 3 cancers, so I’m well over it at this point.

I just found this creative lady and lost her in the same moment. RIP dear heart. You'll stay with all who love you here in your videos.
Thanks Cat for being so patient and down-to-earth in your explanations. Even though English is not my first language I am able to get your stuff. And I like your witty humorous take on everything, too.
Thank you, Cat, for all the words of knitting wisdom you have provided over the years! 😀
Lockdown led me to this amazing technique - thank you so much for sharing this online. I am indeed addicted and downloaded your ebook. Thank you again!
you have an amazing mind. I love this cast on and refer to it for my moebius pattern. I love the moebius and it really is an amazing thing, especially when you knit it with a reversible fabric that has a different look on both sides.
I love all of the reassurances you offer during the video -- you anticipated every possible question!
I'm so happy to find that you knit the same exact way I do. I have such a hard time learning from videos because of this.
Brilliant! You teach so well and you are so easy to follow. Thanks for putting this video online. It's MAGIC!
Great human being really wonderful she will be missed greatly. I hope her family realizes how much Cat was loved. Sorry for the Bordhi family loss.
I never heard of this before and now I can't wait to try it. I need to purchase a long enough circular needle first. Ohh can't wait! Thanks for the great video!

What an awesome tutorial! You give wonderfully clear instructions and very easy to see what you are doing. Thanks so much for making this video!

You are such a good teacher !! Thank you so much for teaching us this cast on! 💕

Super clear video, thank you so much! I have a size 11, 47 inch needle so I will give this a go with some of my chunky hand-painted hand-spun. Excited to see how it goes.

@catbordhi Thank you so much for your response! I will be putting my 36" needles aside and be on the hunt for the 47" :)
Thank you so much for that tutorial! You're a great teacher-- eloquent, calm, and you make it look so easy and fun! I'm going to buy some cable needles and try this out! And thank you for using that thick yarn; it was very easy to see and understand what you were doing!
Your video is amazing (and I like your humour :D ).
Right now I'm creating a scarf on 100cm needles. I don't know if it'll be long enough to go around the neck twice, but as you said, I'm just trying out something new. I'm adding a second colour after some (complete) rounds and I think that'll compliment the Möbius style pretty well :)
Thank you very much!

That is fabulous - thank you so much for your wonderful video! What a wonderful method!
Was there sound? My video was completely silent but I understood it perfectly. Going to start my first moebius today.
Simply the best technique, simply the best explanation, simply the best teacher ... Many, many thanks, may God bless you and yours
WOW Love this!!!! I do have one of your books from years ago. I will have to look for it now. Thanks for the GREAT video
Hi pretty
This is a *very* good introduction into moebius knitting, thank you! Even with a head cold I managed to cast on without a hitch and knit myself a nice neck warmer. Quite the cure for the common cold, if I do say so myself! ;)
voila enfin un bon professeur de Moebius merci++!
This video is excellent and clearly explains and shows what to do. I would have NEVER figured this out from the books!
Loved this tutorial! I had to watch it a few times but once I got the hang of it felt it was well worth it. Completed a headband and then a Shoulder warmer. Thank you Cat.
This is a great vidio. I detected one error, when Cat put the stitch marker on her needle she said put it on the LEFT needle. She actually put it on the right needle. I am still looking forward to trying a moebius cowl.
14 yrs! Wow ❤️ this
Reminds me of provisional cast on method to me I used on a straight needle project. 😺
Addicting. I now understand why. Golly. Thank you!
Hope you are seeing this as I just now have the same question you have. Just learned this technique tonight and noticed after a full round where you come to the marker the stitches do indeed change as they are purled and now knit even though we are knitting from the beginning. Hope someone notices these posts and can help us understand.
Oh my! Thank you for the wonderful tutorial.I absolutely must give this a go!
Excellent instruction!!
Best thing to do is try it. I tried it and could not make it work. I tried a bit larger and it now works. I do believe that to make something useful you will need 40 inches or 47 inches. Something fairly long. I am using 36 inches but am doing a "nothing" project just to learn the technique.

Thak you Cat , I finally understand how to knit a moebius !!
Thank you so much for this video, you explain everything so well and I do like your instruction on making a paper mobius because I like to know how things work :)
Hi Cat,
Thank you for your video. I wonder as you have knitted so many socks if you have ever tried to cast on for a Moebius using Judy's magic cast on? It works a treat and I'm just finishing a scarf using this method. I tried that before I saw this video so will try your method next. What I like about these methods is that there is no visible cast on edge. Thanks again.
Ordering her great books:)
Fabulous instructions! Thank you so much. I learned a new knitting skill, yay!
Easy cast on, compared to other mobius cast ons. My pattern is a 3x3 check, but when I finished my first row (K3 P3 K3 P3, etc), the K3 looked like a pearl 3. Not sure if what I should do next, I have 2 more rows, then switch to P3 K3 P3 K3. Hmm.
Great video Cat and I love your book "A Treasury of Magical Knitting". I was hoping to find a youtube video after my first very confusing attempt at following the instructions in the book. And my first attempt was with Denise kneedles and uggghh... very frustrating, the cast on was way too tight! So I switched to the longest Addi Turbo kneedles I had on hand and success! It's fun and I can't wait to see what my first project ends up looking like! A nice "twist" for my knitting hobby! :o)
Thank you!!!!! Explained beautifully!
Lovely instructions. It's a shame there is no information regarding the number of stitches, but understandable, since there's a book by the author.
The cast-on is easy, once you pick up the rhythm.
One way to check oneself on the cast on is to pay attention to the first row - one stitch "wants" to be knitted in front, and the other one - in back, Thanks.
I followed your video and it worked like a charm! Unfortunately, I didn't think about the moebius cowl pattern soon enough. The fabric was a seed stitch through the center. Now I have a line of knit stitch down the middle. I still love it! Could I have started the first row with a k, p instead of just k? I haven't tried this again, but I have a friend starting a moebius cowl for the first time, which brought it all back.
Hi pretty
I’m gonna have to do it
Working on a cool moebius cowl. Check out this great video on the cast on!
Question when adding pattern to this after cast on do you knit one round or do you jump right into pattern?
when i did the moebius, the pattern starts right after the cast on....i tweaked it just a bit because i didn't like the center seam..... the cast on calls for 80, i then placed a marker.... the first 80 is one side, the second 80 is the other.....what i did was the first half i did knit, the second half i purled. you still have a changeover, but it's much more subtle.....the pattern is exactly the same, just one side is knits, the other purls..... very easy pattern and works up soooooo quickly!!!!

thank you for making it so clear.
Really very interesting, maybe you're right I will be an addict....well if I get it¡ in the mind time I'll try, I love this project¡
Wonderful video! I learned something new! Thank you.
Working as stated! Fun.
This is very interesting, but just too complicated, it way easier just to use the regular cast on method. Fun to try though!
