It is clear and will come in useful---esp with children who get taller more than wider as they grow--one can use this to save a favorite sweater. After I read this tutorial, I read you cast on discussion and I loved that even more. have always felt somehow lacking that the special knit/purl cast on for ribbing seemed to tedious. My only reservation with long tail cast on was so often having too long or too short a tail, esp when I was worried about having enough yarn for a project. Using both ends of the ball is brilliant.
