I have knitted my Mesh Moebius pattern with Baby Merino, and it is really nice to use as a scarf this time of the year, so I thought I would encourage others to try it! November 11 and 12 the pattern will be on sale, 50% off! Available from Ravelry: http://www.ravelry.com/redeem/little-angel-knits?sale=16330
I'm new to the practicalities of shopkeeping so let me know if you have issues with the discount!

Another cast-on that I use often I call the rib cast-on. It's a variation of the long-tail cast-on that produces an elastic edge that looks really good with ribbing. You can watch Eunny Yang from Knitting Daily Tv demonstate it!
