Reverse Long Tail Cast-On (purlwise) // Technique Tuesday

This video demonstrates how to cast on using the long tail cast-on, so that the bumpy side faces as you cast on. Both the Continental ("sling shot method") and English ("thumb method") of working the cast on are demonstrated. An explanation of why you might want to use this technique when knitting in the round or knitting flat is given.
