This is my VERY FIRST reply to ANY post . Just to let you know how significant this tutorial has been to me . I have been strugguling for years with this problem ( i crochet hats in rounds ) I looked all over the net and through many books for a solution and never found one( i didn't even know it had a name ). Now I know what to call it and how to solve it .Thank you , Thank you , Thank you!!!!! a million times.
