The new stitch taught is the CAST-ON stitch. In some books you will see this stitch called the cast-on buttonhole stitch. There are two methods I’ll explain. The cast-on dump stitch and the regular cast-on stitch. (If you've done any knitting - this will be a breeze!) There is also a review of the stitches from the previous lessons that are needed to do this design.
Once you have completed the kit 8, why not make another and choose your own threads. The JDR #339 is the same print of this design. Also you will be ready to do Sunshine’s Treasures # 8, “Cleo” The Cast-On Flower. ST8 is a complete kit with the finishing hoop, threads, needles, beads & baubles & directions. The ST 8 is a smaller design and is great for gift giving!
