Three requirements (personal opinion) for casting on: Use natural fiber (it’s warm). Classic, practical design (no fluffy, no silly). Durable (we walk every day, year-round). When weather drives most humans (and dogs) indoors, places outdoors open up. Because walking can take you places.
Such as a foray to pin down the location of fossil find that pre-dates dinosaur tracks, seen captured in a slab of rock placed in a city park. Interpreting those patterns into a new knitting design led back to a little-known story in a news archive about the specimen that shows “upper forelimbs and the neck of the animal embedded in red sandstone.”
