bind off/cast off
This might be a dumb question......
but, is there a difference between "bind off" and "cast off", or are they the same thing? Dianna www.loulou2.blogspot.com -- "be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind" ~ Dr. Seuss |

Cast off, bind off same thing just as you suspected, but better to ask
than to wonder. |

FWIW, even though I was taught to call it "cast-off" way back when I
learned to knit, I switched to "bind off" when learned that term through machine knitting. I just never did like the associations of throwing it away that come with the term "cast-off"! | On Mon, 14 Mar 2005 07:52:26 -0500, Yarn Forward wrote: Same thing, different language.
