Joining in the round

Abbreviations


CO – cast on
st(s) – stitch(es)

Step 1: After casting on, cast on one more st than the pattern asks for
Step 2: Use the right needle to slip the first CO st from the left needle over to the right needle
Step 3: Use the left needle to take the last CO st and slip it over the first st (that you just moved over) and off the end of the right needle so that it is looped around the first CO st
Step 4: Slip the first CO st on the right needle back over to the left needle
Step 5: Take the cast on yarn and the working yarn and pull them tight until the last CO st cannot be seen
