I too have holes with the M1 increase and rarely use it. So after your post I watched several youtube videos and I can see how to make a M1 w/o holes....yay! thank goodness for youtube! LOL

well it is finished - the yarn - was a bulky - yarn with sequins - Contessa by Rozetti Acrylic and Mohair - -

it shows in the center - where I had to change needle sizes as I did it on size 11 needles and the largest DPN's I have are a 10 - so it came out a bit tight - but I think it came out fine - for a third try - :)
