I use the Chinese cast on a lot. I use a crochet hook with one knitting needle instead of 2 knitting needles. It seems much less fiddly. I like the lovely edge it leaves.
Is it possible, and how, to do a matching cast off for the Chinese Waitress cast on?
Hi Natasha! Some folks like the applied i-cord bind off to go with it, though it’s of course not an identical match. Great question! :) -Heidi
Cool beans, thank you for the reply!
Is there such a thing as knitting needle weighs?
Are you referring to the weight of the needle itself?
