cast on?
Just one more question. Well, one more for now, anyway. Is there a preferred method of cast-on for lace knitting? Should I use long-tail, cable, knit, etc.? I tend to prefer knit cast on, but will certainly change if one is better than the other for this type of knitting. I wasn't kidding when I said I was knew to lace knitting. Once again, thanks so much for the help.

A knit cast on is very good, because it is loose. You want to be able to block this without breaking the yarn.
This is usually not the place for a long-tail cast on, which knits on the first row as you knit. It also tends to be tight.
Uh oh.....I did a long tail cast-on and I'm finishing up my 6th repeat of chart B. It doesn't look too tight to me, so guess it'll be OK.
