I used this method for toe-up socks, and I'm pretty sure it's
considered Elizabeth Zimmermann's Sewn Cast off from Knitting Without
Tears

Hello all. I tried the cast on method with a larger needle and it
worked. I forgot to use a larger one wht regards to casting off. My I
looked at the webpage for the castoff method that you recommended to
me Linda. But, the one I use is better and easier. I can't understand
how you do that. Since I can't see, it makes it hard if someone not
sitting down and showing me. I just the method I learned. By just
casting off. Knitting into pattern. knit or waht ever your pattern is
knit first two stitches and slip the first off the needle over the
second stitches and from then on, knit stitch and slip the one before
it off. Some I forget one of the steps and it comes out way too
tight.I have to kick myself for that.
