4. Wrap yarn around a thumb tack in the side of the rake.
5. Lift the lower thread (first winding) over the upper thread (second winding) and off the nails. When only one thread remains around each nail, run the smooth flat side of the pick around between the rows of nails to push down the threads, and make room for the next winding.
6. Continue by winding once around the rake; that is, until two threads again pass in front of each nail. Lift the lower thread over the upper thread and off the nails to complete the row of stitches.

To knit a cap on this rake the single stitch is used, as a rule.
1. To cast on stitches, tie yarn to a nail, ([Fig. 12]), and wind to the left, until nail A is reached again.
