Silvia Shawl - Cast On TUTORIAL

I thought I'd put together a little tutorial on how to
get started on this shawl.  It is by no means difficult,
just something a bit different.  
What this cast on does is create an I-cord 
border.  I like the look of a finished
edge since most of the shawl is done in garter stitch.

You will need the pattern to follow along - 
which is available on Ravelry

or here

Let's get started:










don't stress about your work looking very loose - 
the tension evens out when you have more
of the pattern completed.



hard to see my live stitches - but I have 3 there!



yes, I did not use any stitch markers!
