Tubular cast ons with Keith Leonard - V- Summer 2025

The Tubular Cast On is Keith’s FAVORITE method for beginning a 1x1 and 2x2 rib. This is the same technique that is used on high-end machine-made knitwear. It’s almost as if the stitches appear out of thin air with no beginning or ending in sight! Fine details like these give your knitting a truly professional look, especially on cowls, hats, socks, sleeve cuffs, sweater hems, and necklines.

There are multiple ways to do this cast on; Keith has tested them all and is here to show you the BEST while breaking down the steps to make the techniques easy and manageable. We will be using two different methods for casting on 1x1 and 2x2 ribbing.

In addition, Keith will give you tips to make your Tubular Cast On pristine and keep your edges crisp. After taking this workshop, you’ll love working the Tubular Cast On so much that you'll use it anywhere you can!
