hello shamlice. to cast off-you knit two-they are on your right needle and then on that needle pick up the loop that was the first stitch and pull it over the second stitch and drop it off the end of the needle. then knit one more stitch over and then take the stitch that was already there on your right needle over it and drop it off the end of your needle. do you understand what i mean? dx.
