I followed your video as you went along and I was able to replicate exactly what you were doing. thank you so much. I went to a class before the pandemic and gave up and did not make socks as this first part was so poorly explained and we were left to basically figure it out on our own. I love to knit and now socks are next for me.
The only thing that would make this better is if you would use a heavier weight yarn so some of these older people like me (who can’t see like we used to) could see it a little better. This is a great cast on.
Thanks for sharing this with us. I like your 'calm' you bring through the video. I am VERY new to knitting, and always seem to be a bit tense, yet, in my style. I am doing portuguese knitting, at this time, and learning the other ways of holding the yarn. I have been a crocheter for eons (or so it seems), so picking up knitting needles was not a natural progression for me. Not exactly sure why, but it is what it is. Thanks again for your knitting lessons.
For those of us who do Portuguese style knitting, check out Andrea Mowry's video on Turkish Cast-on PURLWISE -- it puts the yarn where we need it for Portuguese-style knit stitch. Or check out "Turkish cast on in portuguese style Montagem turca à portuguesa" by Na Trilha dos Fios.
Game changer for me!! I just found this from other podcasters referring to it as the best toe-up cast on. 100% will use this for my first toe-up sock pair!
Love this cast on!. Your tattoos are cool, just a little distracting because I was trying to see what they are😁. Live your calm quiet voice. Great video.
This cast done is a lot easier than the other one because you don’t have to worry about getting in the back. But I’m using such small metal needles that they’re so slippery. I’m having a devil of a time hanging onto everything. I don’t know if my hands are too old, but everything seems so slippery, so I barely get past the second round but I will get there.

I've knitted lots of socks but this will be my first time making some from the toe up. Thank you so much for this awesome tutorial!
I have watched so many videos on Turkish cast on and this is the one that worked for me. Thank you Andrea!

Thank You Andrea, I have gone cross eyed trying to knit Judy’s cast on. You make it look so simple! You Rock!
Thank you. Very clear, concise tutorial x
Brilliant!! Thank you so much!!
Thank you for this great tutorial! I was wondering how to cast on two at a time. Would that be possible with this cast on? Thank you 😊
Thank you for your tutorial will definitely try this 🧶
Thank you for this video! Very helpful, clear and concise.
Worked right away! Yay. This was so easy and looks so nice. Love it. Thank you!
A very good video. I was just wondering can you do the Turkish cast on , on DPNs ?
I have watched a few videos and just couldn’t get it but your video got me on the right track! Thank you Andrea
Great video thanks for sharing it !💗
Thank you for the video😊
Do I have to have the long needles to do the Turkish cast on.
Is your working yarn on bottom or top needle at beginning position after completing your first row? Thank you.
Hi Andrea, I keep ending up with one less stitch on my second needle (the needle I'm knitting into second). Do you know why this would be?

thank you for a great tutorial. i will definitely try this.
Thank you!!! This is genius :)
This is easier than the way I am used to 😊
Enjoyed your Turkish cast on video. If I have a project requiring an odd number of stitches how many times would I wrap my yarn over the the needle?
I keep dropping the first stitch on the first join. Can you help?
Amazing
I need to cast on 95 sts. How many times would I wrap my yarn around both needles? Thank you
finally made sense As will be doing thie un morning
Andrea you never disappoint on showing the correct way knit 🧶
Thank a thousand times thank you!
