I'm puzzled about where the ribbing "starts". Say I'm knitting in the round, 80 stitches per round. I make the slip knot and then cast on 79 stitches as shown. It seems that the first loop AFTER the initial slip-knot loop is a knit stitch, and the next (the third overall) is a purl. So when I begin the next round, if I knit into the original loop and purl into the second, I'm knitting the purls and purling the knits, which is the opposite of what I want for ribbing. Do I have this right?

Dig the snappy music! I wish more knitting tutorials had that. It makes it much more fun!
Good tutorial too - not just the snappy music. :-)
