Absolutely!
Could I use this bind off work using a circular needle when binding off a sweater cuff ?
It would be a great choice. Happy knitting!
Since this is a stretchy bind off, would it work well for a chunky cowl?
Thanks!
I love the bind off for socks as well! Thanks so much for knitting along with me:)
This is the best stretchy bind off for toe up socks that I’ve ever tried! Thanks so much for all your wonderful clear tutorials …

Congrats on finishing Transient! It is not necessary to remove the right hand needle as you finish the stitch. Thanks for knitting with me!
After you pass the 2 stitches back to left hand needle, is it necessary to remove right hand needle? Can you just leave r hand needle there and finish stitch?
I am getting ready to bind off Transitions, love the pattern. Thanks for your wonderful patterns and support.
Looking forward to spring MKAL
