How do you find your place in circular knitting when marker has been lost and the cast on tail was knitted into the first row?

You'll just have to start over because there actually is no other way unless you know where in the first row you knitted the tail. I think it would be better to start over because it's more then likely the project will not look as well as it could.

How do you find the start when knitting in a circle?
Usually one has a "tail" of yarn from the cast-on stitches when you start. It helps to note the beginning at the cast-on process, and put a slip marker there to mark the beginning of the row. The "tail" is a great way to remember where you started, so when you begin a piece, take the time to put your marker on your needles. If you have "lost" your way, very carefully look at your piece near that tail. You should see where the stitches are slightly "off"...that's where your "start" of the row is. Happy knitting!! When both knitting and crocheting in the round, I would mark the beginning of my row with a stitch marker. This can be either a small scrap of yarn in a different color than your working in or a stitch marker that you purchase in the store. Depending upon the pattern I might move the marker to the first stitch of the most recently completed row - or - I might leave the original marker in place and simply add new markers as I add rows.
