Thank you CD! I have returned to this video for the fourth time I think. Very helpful!
Thank you, for this clear, calm, easy explanation of this type of underarm cast on. I’d forgotten how to do it, and it came back so easily, because of your video!😊
I'm knitting my first top down sweater, this video was super clear and helpful! Thank you so much.
Have you been practicing to small projects before you try this one? I am also a beginner and I wonder what are the other tutorials that I need to focus first to be able to make a sweater in the future.
hi, im not Paul, im his wife carol. thank you millions for your tutorials. i love youtube, but obv's it needs people to put on tutorials. i hadn't a clue how to do this procedure, being kinda new to adult knitting. following your tute, i've done it beautifully. thanks loads
I'm practically a new knitter... this was several thumbs up.. Thank you so much.
Thank you for explaining why you’re taking the steps you are - particularly bring the yarn from the front to the back between the last two cast ons - I learn better when I understand /why/ I’m doing something, instead of following directions rote.
Working on my first 'top-down' sweater, adding the underarm stitches had me stumped; your tutorial was fantastic and had me right on track in no time! Thank you!
Very clear explanation, thank you! I'm knitting my first top-down sweater and would have been completely at sea without this video.
Great tips! I knew there had to be another way besides backwards loops. This looks much more solid and like a natural cast on. On with my sweater I go thanks to you!
I’m working on my very first sweater and the sleeves were the biggest point of anxiety for me. Thank you so much for a clear video!
Me too! Thanks very much, will separate my sleeves from the yoke tonight :)
Thank you so much !! Im learning something new and informative from you and appreciate all you share!!😊
Your video and explanation is excellent excellent, love it! So clear and simple and especially like using your channel cast on method for stronger connection to join sleeve. I used the backward cast on method and my underarms were a mess. Thank you!!
I am knitting my first sweater with circular needles, I was so nervous about this part, I was imagining this more complicated than it is. Thank you
Thank you for a detailed & thoughtful video. I bought the Wallflower Cardigan pattern because your FREE videos merit a monetary acknowledgement. Please keep knitting & tutoring!
Thank you for making something “hard” into something “new”. Very easy to follow directions.
I have never thought about it that way before, but yes, just because a knitting skill is new to you doesn't mean it has to be hard!

My first top down so this video was extremely helpful. Clear directions and not too fast.
Thank you, clear and very doable with your great stepped approached
Thank you for a very explanatory video on sleeves. I finally had my “aha” moment. I followed your instructions and the sleeves turned out just fine. All of your videos are easy to follow.
Thanks for this quick guide. This was exactly where I was up to on my raglan sweater and it made letting the sleeves off so easy. A great tutorial!
Triple thumbs up! Thank you so much. I'm working my first sweater successfully (four months of failure and yarn thrown in the trash) and I'm coming up on the top down sleeve on hold cast on part. I was getting anxious because of my lengthy failure history, so I found this tutorial and have immediate reduction of my anxiety. It reads more complicated than it actually is, in part because patterns assume you know what you're doing, which I clearly don't. I have a friend who knits and I can commiserate with her and she's been incredibly supportive. But she's not a teacher and doesn't live close enough to guide me as I'm knitting. Self taught is experience engraved in my wallet. 😂 I thrive on TH-cam videos, and still struggle. All of that to say, this video gives me hope and a new channel to turn to when I am distressed. ❤🔥💯%
Such a clear detailed description and beautiful sweater too! Thanks so much!
WONDERFUL!!❤❤❤
Ound this video at just the right time! Just about to divide my first top down sweater for the sleeves! Thank you for a very clear, helpful video!!
Thanks. Been looking for 2 weeks for useful help (first sweater in 25 years) 😃 now I can move forward 👌🏽 nice and clear. 💕
so very helpful! Thank you for showing how the cast on works within the context of the project itself.
Thank you so much!!!! I have been dreading this part of my cardigan and was almost up to it and wasnt sure if I would know how to do it. This helped SOOOO much !
Re-visited again for a refresher. Working on my Christmas sweater! This Vid-ref will go into my Ravelry project pages as per usual. Thanks Ellen!
What a great video! Purling the underarm cable cast-on and the trick at the end with pulling the yarn to the back. It should make my sleeves neat and easy to pickup under the arm. Thanks!
Thank you so much, I was very confused on how to do this; turning the work over suddenly made sense!
This is exactly what I needed to know. Your video and direction is so clear, there is no way I will make a mistake. I learned tons. Thank you!
Fabulous tutorial, thank you. Very helpful, very well explained now I feel ready to attempt this technique. So glad to have found your video
Thank you so much! This is definitely neater and "cleaner" looking that the backwards loop method. I always enjoy learning new techniques.
Such a beautiful sweater, thank you for your tutorial.
Thank you so very much for this video . You have helped me be more confident that I can do this . I haven't knit a sweater yet , because I'm trying to learn as much as possible before I atempt to take this on . You are a very good teacher . Again thank you .
I'm knitting my first sweater and just got to the part where I have to divide for the sleeves and cast on new stitches. I about had a panic attack reading the pattern so thank you for the easy to understand video!!
I've watched your tutorial before a while back and saved it 🤔 can't remember if I left a comment but I'm so glad to revisit. You taught this method brilliantly and I don't need to look anywhere else; thank you, I learnt exactly what I needed to.
Side note: I would loooove to make the top in your video, its gorgeous ☺️
Excellent video with clear instructions! Thank you so much for taking the time to explain the process. I am still new to sweater knitting so any tips in creating a neat underarm is appreciated! It was exactly what I was looking for and the first video that came up in my search so I will be giving it a try.
thank you Ellen..... i always have trouble when i split the sleeves... this will make my life much easier.... once again, thanks!
I'm working on a new top down sweater design, so I'll be covering this topic again, with a slightly different twist, in late February or early March.
Exactly what I needed! The pattern I’m following suddenly went very vague and I hadn’t cast on purlwise like this before - thank you very much for your clear instructions!
I'm knitting my first top down garment the Le Pouf cardigan and this tutorial and the Picking up underarm stiches will be very helpful thank you.
So incredibly helpful! Thank you, i've saved this tutorial in my favorites since I will be separating for sleeves tomorrow. This will be my 4th sweater so, I wish I had seen this earlier :)
This is a pretty handy trick and a great excuse to knit more sweaters.
Thank you! You made the directions on my pattern understandable by what you were doing.
This is exactly how I knit! Makes it’s so much easier to watch your tutorial which is brilliant. Subscribed!
Thank you so much this is my 1st attempt of knitting a sweater top to bottom so was quite anxious when came to underarms you explained it very well and have given me confidence to finish sweater for my daughter thank you again
Thank you so much! I just found the video and now I'll be able to finish a baby sweater!🧶💕
Thank you! I am making my first top down sweater, Love Note, but the instructions were silent about how to cast on under the arm. You are a life saver! And I learned a new technique.
This is a great tutorial! Thank you for such clear instructions!
Thank you so much for this video! I am doing my first top down sweater and had no idea what the backwards loop cast on was. Was dreading it but your video explained it very well.
Excellent video, I especially like the cable cast on for the underarm stitches, thank you
That was amazing.
I love the colour and the richness of material.
Your sweater looks SO expensive. 🤗
VERY Beautiful❗
I hope to use this on my mittlets, backwards loop was a mess on the first one. This seems brilliant and very pretty.
Thank you, I’m making my very first sweater and this was extremely helpful. Total life saver for my mental health.🥰
Happy to help support good mental health, especially in this crazy time. Happy knitting! 💖
Thank you so much for a very clear, easy to understand video about casting on under the arm sweater. My first time doing this, and having watched several videos on how to do this and why certain steps are done, your video by far is the best. So thank you again.
Thank you for very clear instructions, making my first sweater. I will be following The Chilly Dog
Thank you so much for doing this video. Like many other people commented, I was dreading casting on stitches for the underarms. I couldn't get a clear picture of how to do it from the written instructions. Your video clearly showed how to do this technique. Many thanks again!
I was so grateful for this advice. It’s was easy to follow but such a relegation - my underarm increase always looked so messy. So I searched and found your great advice. Now my project looks so neat ! Thank you 😊
Thank you..working on my first sweater
Thank you! I am knitting my first top down cardigan and am stressing about this step in the pattern. It was ruining my enjoyment of the experience! Now I have an idea of what I will be doing. I appreciate this help!
Thank you , this is the first time I make a sweater and this video was Extremely helpful! Thanks a lot !
What a fantastic video, thank you!
Thank you for this...its made a huge difference for me. Really helpful!
Very clear instructions! Thank you so much for making this. It's helped me a lot.
Super helpful! Thanks for sharing
Thankyou! I’m a continental knitter so found this a little bit tricky but I moved my yarn to right hand to wrap the yarn creating purl stitch and was able to do this!
Excellent instructions...thanks so much.
This was really clear and very helpful. Thank you!
Thank you so much, you are extremely clear in your video. now I can go ahead knowing that I did it right.
THANK YOU. You were the only video I could find that showed the cable cast on Purl-wise for under the arm. Everyone else shows it Knit-wise as a standard, even when they are working on the purl side. It never made sense to me. Then you will see the list of videos showing how they try to hide those additional purl bumps. YOUR WAY- takes all that additional work away. Much simpler to do it the correct way first- right? Right. Thank you again!
My personal knitting philosophy... When I'm able, I'd rather take the time to avoid problems so I don't have to fix stuff later. Glad it helped you. 💖
Ha I know which videos you’re talking about. I agree with you.
Fantastic video!
I just tryed it and it looks great! Perfect! Thank you soooo much for your very good videos!
That was so incredibly helpful and clear! Thank you! I’m working through my fiat raglan sweater (doll size) and the pattern is super minimal, just said “rest the sleeve stitches and cast on 4 underarm stitches.” I searched through so many videos and this was the only one that clearly showed how to do this step. I feel pumped and confident to continue! Thank you so much!
Hooray! I'm so glad you can stitch on with confidence. Happy knitting! 💖
Useful video. Thank you
I’m making my first raglan and this was so helpful!
