Hi, Susan. You need an odd # of strings. Wrap your circle (example: rounded
coathanger) like spokes of a wheel. When completed, tie off. Now cut an
extra string and with one end of extra string collect all the wrapped
strings together at the center of the weaving and re-inforce with a knot.
Now take the other end of the extra string and add it as one more spoke of
the wheel...spreading out all the spokes of the warp evenly. Now you have an
uneven number of warp strings to start your weaving.

I had forgotten about round weaving. Thanks for reminding me. Toodles...Bunki
