The pattern I’m following says to knit the first round and then join. This doesn’t make sense because everything I’ve seen shows joining before you start knitting.
When knitting in the round at what point do I join?
You can do either. If you wait to join after the first round it’s a little easier to be sure that your sts aren’t twisted. You can always use the yarn tail to close up any gap when you weave it in.

I like to join to complete that 1st round. Easy to put a marker there and then join so that it will remain tight.
