Hi Marsha - I am fiddling a bit with the details on this, but the short answer is YES, it can. I would recommend halving your total number of sts and adding ONE for in-the-round knitting. And when you join, my experiment so far has been that it takes a little care to be sure there isn't a gap. Let us know how you find it!
Thanks for this video! A few questions though... 1) What if you need an odd number of stitches? 2) How did you "join" your main yarn? 3) Adding the "joined" loop gave me an extra stitch for 12. How did you not wind up with 12 stitches after adding that "joined" loop? 4) What happens with the odd-numbered stitch eventually? Do you drop it? I wound up with an extra stitch on my swatch because of the one added at the beginning.
Hi Iris! This looks so much easier. Can this method be used in the round? Thanks.
