It depends on how many stitches you have to cast off. Check your pattern as to how many stitches to cast off. Once you know, knit two stitches, and then take the stitch farthest from the end of your needle, and pull it over the second stitch. You will now have one stitch. Knit another stitch, and cast off the stitch farthest from the end of your needle. Repeat until you have cast off a sufficient amount of stitches.

∙ 14y agoCasting off is the way to finish a project. It is done quite simply- you knit two stitches, then bring the first stitch up the needle and over the second. You then knit a third stitch, and repeat. Eventually you are left with one stitch left. You can then cut the yarn, leaving a tail, and bring it through the loop, and tie a knot. Voila! Your project is complete!

How do you knit an I- cord?
Using a pair of double pointed needles, cast on 4 stitches. Instead of turning and knitting back the other direction, slide all four stitches to other opposite end of the needle and knit into the first stitch that you cast on. Knit the rest of the stitches on the needle. Slide them down to the opposite end and repeat. You are knitting in the round on a very small scale. Bind off as you would in the round. My aunt makes custom shoelaces by knitting I-Cord with number 10 crochet thread. -smcm
