A tubular cast-on is an elegant couture beginning to 1×1 ribbing when starting socks or hats. Learn both the tubular cast-on and Elizabeth Zimmermann's invisible auxiliary wool cast-on that is its basis.
Skill level is intermediate.
Prerequisite: should be able to “read” your knitting.
Maximum 20 students.

No materials fee.
No homework.
Supplies:- class yarn (smooth, non-splitting, light or bright or medium color)

No special needs for the room set up. A whiteboard or flip chart is nice to have but not need to have. Room set-up should be tables and chairs either facing forward or in a U-shape.
