Knitting ~ casting on?

i'm making these bunny booties http://aww.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=785155 and i'm stuck on the part where you need to cast on. Do i cast on so the stitches are on the needle with no work on it or cast on to the needle with the work on it and knit through the whole row.

1. I don't think the method you use to cast on will really matter with these booties. Use whatever method you are most comfortable with.
2. you will need to cast on to the needle with the work on it and then knit the stitches that you just cast on and then continue to knit across the stitches that were already on the needle
3. Do a Long Tail Cast On of the 13 stitches and then begin the pattern. If you did a Knitted Cast On or a Twisted Loop Cast On they produce a looser stretchy edge which is not what you want for snug baby booties.
