Ah, the night before a sweater, what a lovely thing.  In this video about swatches and the alternating cast on and why I chose it, and have a look at my fabric and gauge. (It was bang on, first time. Truly a charmed swatch, I tell you.)

I'm sorry it's so late, and that the sound isn't perfect. Joe's still) away (I just hauled a tree to the curb by myself in an epic wrestle that left the house covered in needles and me smelling of sap) and it turns out he's a really, really helpful guy. He's back soon, so wonky sound and long edits and weird uploads should soon be a memory.

Fondly,

Stephanie

(PS. Thanks to the math knitters who pointed out that 16+16 is not 28.  True, and terrible news. I'll be doing my swatch again. )

In the last video you mentioned doing a modified conventional bind off. Will you show that? Or does anyone know if it's in an old video?

Same question as Heidi. How do you approach row gauge mis-matches?

Really helpful video Steph! One question about using the smaller needle for cast on and then switching to the ribbing needle: will you do just the cast on in the smaller needle, or do the cast on + one row before switching? I couldn’t quite follow which, and thought doing the latter may give more stability to the cast on stretchiness .

Is the alternating cable cast on suitable for top down sock cuffs
