Free patterns and instructions
Thank you for the free patterns you do supply. I’ve not used the bind off yet. Will do so in the future.

Not as flexible as I’d like
I tried this bindoff method as one of several when I was trying to figure out the best way to finish a toe up sock on my CSM. If I have my terms right, this is a knit only bindoff. This did not provide as much stretch as I like (same with the purl only bindoff). What I like to use is a knit-purl bindoff, which requires working alternately from the inside and outside of the cylinder. This (K-P) works particularly well with a mock rib cuff — the bind off is hidden inside the sock (it is a little bulky), and it adds an additional bit of (gentle) elasticity for holding up the sock.
