Question

is it a bind stitch or something? PLEASE GIVE ME DETAIL AND MAKE IT EASY- im just a begginner.

Answer 1

To cast off it is more or less like knitting a row, if you knit the first two stitches and then take the first stitch over the second to leave one on the right hand needle. Then just keep knitting one stitch at a time passing the other stitch that was on the needle over the one you have just knitted until you have one stitch left. Then cut your thread and pass it through the loop to secure it.
