Fasten off and sew up back, or you can slip stitch the back together by going through both loops of last row. You do that by turning to the wrong side and folding the back in half, slip stitch the 1st to the 30th st, then slip stitch the 2nd st to the 29th st, then slip stitch the 3rd st to the 28th st, and so on. Sew in ends.
