What are you knitting?
I love knitting vests/sweaters from side to side especially with the self striping yarns. The results are certainly figure flattering. Early this year I came up with this pattern for a vest using the Rowan Colourscapes yarn. Knitting in garter stitch from side to side is easy and with knock-out results with his color combos (this is color #434) designed by Kaffee Fassett. I used the crochet cast on recommended by Sally Melville in her Knit Stitch book which gives an edge that most resembles the bind off edge.
