Okay, I have to rip it out because it's the wrong size, but I needed to share this:
The gorgeous tubular cast-off I learned from TechKnitting.
Just look at that edge: 
It's a thing of beauty. And stretchy? Like you wouldn't believe. In fact, so much so that I threaded in a little elastic (visible in the shot above) as I was kitchenering it closed, to make sure it would hold its shape (this is a neckband). What a difference a good finishing technique makes!
In fact, it was so much fun to learn this new finishing technique and have it turn out so lovely that I am looking forward to ripping it out so I can do it again!

Lovely edge! I think I may have to try out the tubular castoff.
Oh, very nice! I'd never really read what the tubular cast off consisted of so thank you for the link.
I must learn that, obviously. Good to see you learning (and sharing!) such useful tidbits.
