Crochet cast-on with knitting needles

I moved the bulk of the tutorial over to my artfire blog. Need some content there, so this is going to be more for personal/research stuff.

Highlight reel:

1. Start with a slipknot.
   
2. YO on the working needle (right).
   
3. Knit the slip knot.
   
4. Pass stitch back.
   
5. YO.
   
6. Knit.
   
7. Pass the new stitch back.
8. Repeat 5-7 for the until you have at least 2 extra stitches.
9. Cut and secure the yarn. This is pre-cast on.
   

10. Knit with your real yarn, this is the cast-on row that will stay.
    
11. To free up the provisional stitches, undo the last chain stitch and zip the waste yarn off.
    

There you go! Some extra details at the Artfire page, but that’s the essentials.
