The Pinhole Cast-On can be used when working just a few stitches on double-pointed needles, and it is unique in that it can be tightened, leaving no hole or gap in the very center of your work. The pattern for the square swatches I show in the video is as follows: CO 8 stitches, divide between 4 double-pointed needles, then K around all stitches. Row 1: KFB all stitches Row 2: K around all stitches Row 3: *KFB, K2, KFB*, repeat on other 3 needles Row 4: K around all stitches Row 5: *KFB, K to last stitch, KFB*, repeat on other 3 needles Row 6: K around all stitches Repeat Rows 5 and 6 to desired size, BO normally.
