Neat and Tidy

I spent the weekend bouncing back and forth between projects.  That means I don't have any finished objects to share, but I did start something new.

A simple ribbed hat.

I started with a tubular cast on.  This is one of my favorites for a neat and tidy edge.

There are some really good tutorials out there for the tubular cast on, so I won't bore you with the details.  If you're curious, you'll find the method I use here.  It takes a little extra time, but this step-by-step approach is really quite painless - even with a lot of stitches on small needles.  Give it a whirl and add another technique to your knitting tool box.
