Little Twist = worked over two stitches. Slip the first stitch as if to knit, and then knit the next stitch. Bring your left needle over to the stitch you slipped, and insert your left needle into that stitch, and pass it over the stitch you just knitted. You’ll have a strand of yarn drawing a slightly twisted arch over the knitted stitch. Knit that stitch that you just moved back over to the left needle. (Sl, K1, PSSO, K)

Secure the last stitch, and put the cast on edge next to the bind off edge, and stitch closed the top 1/2 inch of the seam.
Weave the sewing yarn down through one side of the seam, leaving a nice little gap for the handle of your mug to fit through.
