Apologies if I missed this but after watching your flat star stitch video then this video, I’m confused because in this video you already have 2 star stitch rows but didn’t show how to Begin stitching into the round? Do I just fold the flat piece and slip stitch?

[@HooksBooksWanderlust]

@@Amanda-pc3jv that can vary based on your pattern, but the most basic way to begin working in the round is a foundation chain that’s been joined by slip stitch. Another way to do it is to work a base row of sc into a row of foundation chains (or skip the chains and work a foundation sc) then join at the top of the sc. This is usually my preferred method because I’m less likely to twist my work before I join it. Just don’t forget that when you weave in your ends, you’ll also need to use that yarn tail to secure the bottom of your sc. To see what I mean, see the beginning of this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pKfWdHmffs-Smcksi=isYz7sU25QWbi7Vv. It uses a different stitch but same technique.

How do I join them?

[@HooksBooksWanderlust]

Join with a slip stitch to the top of the first star stitch (or sc if on that type of round) to join.
