OVERVIEW
A slip knot is the first step in casting on for most knitting projects. In this video we will show you how to create a slip knot.
STEP-BY-STEP
1) Starting with the tail end of your yarn, pull about 15cm from the ball.
2) Make a loop.
3) Place the yarn at the back of your loop.
4) Use your fingers to pull through a loop and tighten.
5) Slip the loop onto your needle and with the yarn that’s leading to the ball pull and tighten.
And that’s how you make a slip knot in knitting!
