Invisible Knit Neckline Stitches Pick-Up by Connie Hester

I have received numerous inquiries about illustrations and videos of this invisible knit neckline stitches pick-up. I do not know of any online, so I am posting one of my own illustrations. This was taken from my Knit Hemmed Jacket Pattern which includes a double-knit (2 layers) collar and front facings. This technique would also work with single-layer neckline treatments.

Cast-on by laying the circular needle against the neckline and mimicking making stitches with a needle and thread in continuous loops (like a wire spiral book binding). I use 2 tails of yarn from 2 balls (for double-knitting) for the "thread" which is 3-4 times the length of the neckline (but I actually use a crochet hook to pull both yarns all the way through rather than a needle). I move from right to left as I face the inside of the jacket so that I will begin knitting the right side of the collar from the right end of the needle when the stitches have all been cast on.

Here is an illustration of the finished join line inside the knit garment:
