  • This video will show you how to work the alternating cable cast on. An alternating cable cast on is a useful, stretchy cast on for ribbing that’s less fussy to work than a tubular cast on. It’s worked like a regular cable cast on, but instead of casting on each stitch knitwise stitches are alternately cast on knitwise and purlwise.
    Alternating cable is a really useful cast on to have in your repertoire. It's almost as good a match for ribbing as a tubular cast on, and I think it's more or less as elastic. The alternating cable cast on is particularly useful for socks, hats and sweaters.

    I have just used your cable cast on information for the welts on some socks I am knitting, it is a great method and almost looks like a tubular cast on. In my opinion an ideal cast on for socks and I will use it on sweater cast ons too. Thank you Ysolda.

    it would be more helpful if I could see the cast on stitches to see the purl bumps.

    If I’m casting on for 1x1 rip stitch, I need exactly 120 stitches on my needle for what I’m making but if I count the slip stitch as a stitch it will mean I can’t end the cast on with a knit stitch like in the video. Can I just skip over the slip stitch when I do my first row and tighten it into the knitting?

    This all seems increeibly complicated foe a simple alternating cast on when you could just floss the needle between thread. Is this cast on for some reason better or what is actually addding to the elasticity?

    what if it's P1, K1P1 to last stitch, then P1? in other words, what if it's 1x1 ribbing but the first 2 and last 2 stitches are the same?

    Hi, I am a beginner learning casting-on. You said 'The cast-on will be working with the ball end of the yarn inserting the right needle into the slip.' I don't understand what you meant by 'With the ball end of the yarn.' Could you explain? Thank you.

      welcome to the club!
      there are many ways to cast on stitches. sometimes casting on includes the little tail end that dangles freely from the ball, like in a long-tail cast-on. other times, like when you've started with a slip knot, you ignore the little tail end and only work with the long side of yarn that pulls from the yarn ball.
      like... if you were to make a slip knot and tug on the little tail, your slip knot comes apart.
      but if you make a slip knot and ignore the little tail... and work from the long side of yarn - that's the working yarn or the ball end! hope that helped. :)

    Please could you explain why this technique is used for K2P2 rib. What's the problem with just casting on as K2P2 ?

      it just doesn't work, the way the yarn moves between 2 knit stitches or 2 purl stitches interrupts the pattern

      What should I do if my pattern is for a 3x3 rib?
