How to three-needle cast off
As seen in Simply Knitting
A fast and neat way to cast off for seams using three needles.
 Step 1 Place knitted pieces together with the right or wrong sides facing, insert the third needle through the first stitch on both needles as shown. |
 Step 2 Knit these 2 stitches together, pulling both loops off the needles in your left hand. You should have just one stitch on your right-hand needle. |
 Step 3 Repeat steps 1 and 2 again on the next stitches to give you 2 stitches on the right-hand needle. |
 Step 4 Take the first stitch over the second stitch on the right hand needle as you would in a normal cast off. Repeat step 2 and step 4 along the row and fasten off the last stitch as you would on a regular cast off row. |
