Love these, I did them in an 80/20 wool/ silk with a rolled bind off and wear them with the knit, instead of pearl, side out

Check you tube for a video on how to get rid of the ladder. Its soooo simple to do. Cast on 1 xtra stitch then when you start to join u slip that xtra stitch onto ur right hand needle then slip stitch over. No more ladder. Works everytime. Really chk out you tube

These look beautiful, I would love to knit them but I just cannot enjoy knitting in the round.I have tried but I end up with a ladder where the needles meet and it takes me so much longer I get stroppy with anyone who dares breath within a 1/2 mile radius! As this is meant to be my version of stress relief I would like to ask- How could I adapt this pattern for straight needles?

If you are knitting on 4 needles, to avoid a "ladder" where they meet, just slip the last stitch to the next needle at the end of each one.

Its easily adapted, when it says to "join in the round or join' just don't start the pattern without joining and complete the pattern as instructed and sew the seam at the end. hope this helps.
