Written instructions
Using a 6mm circular needle with a long cable cast on 30 stitches using a long tail cast on. IU n!t uy ugil tuoup , Iuutuw oti uLliuii us ultuw. 1. Slide your cast on stitches back along the needle until they are all on the circular needle cable. 2. Pull the knitting needle cable out between stitches 15 & 16 of your 30 cast on sts - this will split the sts to set up for magic looping. 3. Keep pulling the cable until the first 15 sts you cast on are now on the other needle that was originally empty & position this needle closest (facing) to you. 4. Make sure to not twist your knitting and keep all the stitches the same way up with the cast off edge at the bottom. Round 1: Using the back (now empty) needle - knit 15sts on the front needle (pull yarn tight after knitting 1st stitch to take up slack of join between needles), slide these 15sts you just knitted onto the circular cable, slide the remaining unknitted 15sts of this round back onto the back needle, turn your knitting around & use the now empty (previously front needle) to knit these remaining 15sts, round one is complete.
