Garter Stitch in the Round

Garter stitch, which is so easy to do when you're knitting flat, is kind of a pain when knitting in the round! This is because you have to alternate knitting one round with purling one round to make up for the fact that you're not turning your work. If you feel up to the challenge, you can do a wrap and turn at the end of each round, and go back the other way, still knitting, which creates kind of a "cheater's" garter stitch.
