In the round

I was at the Knitty coffeeshop the other day, and I learned an excellent way to join when knitting in the round: just take the first and last CO stitches, and swap them. Or as fiberfairy posted, Take the last stitch (on the right hand needle) and slip it over the first stitch (on the left hand needle) and then go about your knitting business. It honestly works like a charm. I used to just CO an extra stitch and then knit the first and last CO sts together, but this new way is much more smooth.

I can't quite handle the spit splice, though. I'd feel bad spitting on something I was knitting for someone else.

It's time to figure out when to go to Harrah's for the Indigo Girls concert! Expect more pictures than you can shake a stick at.
