Casting on new stitches
I'm knitting-in-the-round a flip-top mitten (like the Broad Street
mittens at http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEfall02/PATTbroadstreet.html but not that pattern). After getting close to the fingers, you knit the palm stitches onto store them on a string holder, then knit the back stitches, then cast on new stitches for the palm side of the flap. How do I cast those stitches on? Should I use the Single Cast-On or Cable Cast-On, to use the terms from http://www.knittinghelp.com/knitting...ques/index.php or some other method? The next few palm rows are going to be K1, P1 ribbing, if that makes a difference. |

I'd lean towards to cable cast on as you do want some elasticity to that part. Thanks, I'll go ahead with that! |
