2021 Feb 13 - Make Your Own Cast On Bonnet

Presenting a new step by step how to video on making your own Cast On Bonnet - an easy new CSM user project! FOR MORE INFO SEE OUR CAST ON PAGE

Video has a strong audio - you may wish to turn the volume down. All you need for this project is a working CSM ready to knit, something to cast on with, scrap and project yarn, and a darning needle to do your off machine bind off once finished. Cylinder specific means that this bonnet is made on the only cylinder it will be used on (Unlike a Universal Bonnet). We will review the project we will make, you will cast on using your preferred method (see CASTING ON below for more info if needed or skip to near the end of the video where we show how to use the newly made bonnet to cast on with). Pattern summary: a twenty row hung hem, a specified body length worked, a row of picot (two stitches on one needle, one needle empty then repeat), work 10 final rows of project yarn, switch to scrap yarn and then take the project off the machine. I will show you how to bind off, how to remove your cast on and end scrap yarn and then demonstrate how to use it to cast on. Have a question?

Want to upgrade your bonnet idea by adding 6mm split rings? Here’s the video on how to add the rings when doing the picot: https://youtu.be/0XvYsTkjn1A

Want to instead make my universal flat bonnet (with or without the 6mm split rings?) see how here: https://youtu.be/Ii3NfRO_PKA
