Finagling the join on the stole

Anne posted today about fussing with the join of the HoneyBee Stole, fussing made necessary by the fact that the provisional cast-on makes the pattern off by half a stitch when the stitches are picked up and knit in the opposite direction. I tried at first to overlook this small mismatch but after a few rows, it began to bug me so I frogged back to the join and also finagled a solution to make it line up.

Could you share just how you did this?
I'm far from getting to that point but would love to know how you did it.
thanks!!

For those interested in seeing how Anne Hanson dealt with the join, I put the link to her post about it in the Knitspot Tutorials links in the sidebar. :)
