Simple Crossed cast on Method

This special cast on is my adaptation from the “montage croisé formant une chaîne” (Cast on crossed making a chain) explained by Thérèse de Dillmont in her book Encyclopédie des ouvrages de Dames. This cast on is worked quite in the same way as the continental cast on. It gives a nice, decorative and stretchy border that bundle the stitches two-by-two.
Make a slip knot and then work 1st st holding the yarn from the ball over your finger and the end tail of yarn placed from the inside of your palm around your thumb:

1. Insert needle under the loop around your thumb

2. Pull up a loop from the finger yarn

3. Pass it through the thumb loop
Crossed cast on
4. Remove the loop from the thumb
Crossed cast on
Work the 2nd stitch as follows:
5. Place the end tail of yarn around your thumb from the outside of your palm
Crossed cast on
6. Insert needle through the back loop around your thumb
