knittingHi all!
I just finished knitting the Retro Redux Shrug from Lace Style. For those of you who might not have seen this pattern, it finishes with ribbing along the edge. I've found it fits snugly (but OK) except for the cast off edge. I cast off normally (in ribbing) but unfortunately this is the only part that doesn't stretch. Do any of you know of a stretchier cast-off?
ETA: Thanks everyone, I'm going to try Grumperina's first and then move on to the more fiddly, sewn one if that doesn't work out.
