When you are first beginning to learn to cast, I like to have my students turn to the side before casting. If you are right handed, turn to the right about 90 degrees, if left handed, 90 degrees to the left. You will still be casting forward, but you will be able to see your rearward cast. The cast to the rear is the most important part of the whole cast, everything else is based on that cast. If you are too low, you will strike the ground, there will be a terrible cast forward if you can cast at all. Too high a cast to the rear can cause a downward motion to the water on the forward cast.
The Viking Knit is a weaving of wire. It can take several spools of wire just to make a few inches of the knit. The knit itself is a series of connected loops. You will note on the piece displayed that the ends of each bead are fed through a cone, this helps to disguise the ends, which are loops.
