Invisible cast-on (post #27650)

The Oct/Nov 1989 issue of Threads had an article describing an invisible cast-on as used by a Ms Ellman. I xeroxed the article but failed to get the entire instructions...also missed the instructions for knitting a basic hat with this method. Is it possible anyone has this information?


Thank you in advance.

Google has a hundred million knitting sites, I doubt there is anything that isn't covered, a great majority have videos. You can even Google specific requests (e.g., knitting free pattern cabled chemo hat, or the name of a specific pattern) and it will take you right to the spot.

I thank you for not only finding the invisible cast-on but also while I was there, found the crochet cast-on, said to match the crochet bind-off.
