Knit for Kids, 10th Anniversary

I'm working on this pattern, but I wanted to knit it in the round, instead of flat. That was easy enough - then when I got to the sleeves, I thought, "you know, if I were to cast on both sides of the sleeve at the same time, I wouldn't have to seam the underarm."

Here you see the result of my experimentation. I cast on the recommended number of stitches, loosely, and doubled them on the way back across. On the next row, I slipped every other stitch (the ones I increased before) onto another needle, and continued working. I'm pretty happy with the way it turned out.
