Knitting Help - Latvian Long-Tail Cast-On

The Latvian LTCO is pretty, fairly deep, and has decent stretch to it. But I think most knitters will get excited about this fact - after close inspection, I'm pretty sure it's IDENTICAL ON BOTH SIDES. Please excuse the green screen background - we're under a bit of construction in the studio. Exciting changes to come! Information on things you'll see in this video: The poncho on the mannequin behind me is my Rodeo Drive Poncho, pattern + video tutorial: http://verypink.com/2013/12/20/rodeo-drive-poncho/ The purple scarf I'm wearing is this pattern: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/sexy-shawl The yarn I used in the bulky samples is Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Bulky, in colors Jam and Silver. The bamboo needles I used are by Clover. The nail color I'm wearing is by OPI, "Berries in the Canaries".
