There is nothing more deflating than casting off a shawl and finding out that the cast off is way too tight. Do you really want to take back 600 or 700 stitches? 

There is a great cast off called Jeny's Surprisingly Stretchy Bind Off.

I watched a few videos on the cast off and the one that I liked the best was Ysolda Teague's. Here it is. 

Stretchy bind off for Follow Your Arrow

If you watch this video (or any other 'how to' knitting videos) and are having problems understanding the technique, please watch another video. Sometimes you don't click with the person presenting and you might have better results watching another video.
