Cut yarn, pull through last stitch made, and thread the needle. Insert the needle under both loops of the first stitch of the round and pull yarn through.Then, insert needle through back loop of the last stitch made and pull yarn through. This will create a false stitch. Simply adjust it by pulling the yarn until it matches the size of the other stitches. Weave in all ends.
