...in front of the gatepost
...behind the gatepost and...
...lay in new yarn and knit back by hand.
This is my favourite method of casting off, after latch tool - one in front, one behind, repeat. Not as stretched out as behind all gateposts, and not as tight as in front of all gateposts.

Want to make sure I am reading this one correctly.
For this bind off you transfer a stitch first wrapping it behind the gate peg then knitting off and then in front of the gate peg and binding off.
Am I correct in what I am reading. I haven't seen this one before.
Yes, that's correct. It's halfway between "transfer sts all behind" (which can flare out) and "transfer sts all in front" (which can be too tight). I made it up to get a happy medium :)
I have been looking at this again as I have gotten a little more experienced at machine knitting. I had totally forgotten that I had even posted here but remembered seeing this.
I will give this a try today and see how it goes. I think this would make this cast off much easier to do once the hands and machine agree to corporate with each other.
