Obviously I'm a newb when it comes to knitting in the round. I know how to increase, but I usually do the knit front and back increase. Can I also do that increase in the round? Sorry for all of the questions X3

I think a lifted increase (m1) would be your best bet if you're knitting every round as this produces a smooth increase, versus a bar increase (knit one front and back). However, if you alternate knit and purl rows, that produces garter stitch and so would probably be unnoticed.

I use Kfb, but m1 works as well, but I've found that it left the fabric kind of hole-y when I used it to make mittens.. D:

If you use m1 left or m1 right it usually twists the stitch so that doesn't happen, you just have to figure out which way you want the stitch to lean.
