CAST ON Meaning and Definition

1. Cast on is a fundamental technique used in knitting to start a new project. It involves creating the foundation row of stitches on the knitting needles before proceeding with the subsequent knitting process. This technique sets the initial number of stitches required for the project and determines the shape and size of the item being created.

   To perform a cast on, the knitter starts with a slipknot or a loop of yarn on one needle. By using various methods, the knitter then creates additional stitches by looping the yarn around the needle in specific ways. Different cast on methods produce different appearances and functions. For example, the long-tail cast on is a commonly used technique that creates a stretchy edge, making it suitable for many projects.

   The cast on is a vital step in knitting as it establishes the first row of stitches and lays the foundation for the entire project. It is crucial to choose the appropriate cast on method depending on the desired outcome and the type of project being undertaken. A well-executed cast on ensures the stability and uniformity of the stitches, contributing to the overall success of the knitting project.

Etymology of CAST ON

The term "cast on" in knitting is derived from the action of setting up the initial stitches on the knitting needle before starting a new project.

The etymology of "cast on" can be traced back to the Old English word "cystan", meaning "to throw" or "to cast". This ancient technique of starting a knitting project by "casting on" stitches has been used for centuries, and the term has persisted in knitting terminology.
