The Kennesaw Kudzu socks and hat both start with a center-out cast-on. This is a combination of Gwen Bortner's encasement pick-up and a typical center-out cast-on.
In addition to the hat and the toe-up socks, this cast-on would be useful to work a circular shawl in reversible lace.
- Wrap the tail counterclockwise in a circle twice.
- Knit into the center of the circle.
- Yarn over.
- One pair completed.
- Repeat as many times as needed.
- Pull tail gently but firmly to close hole.
