Day 10: Backwards (Inside Out?) Knitting

I'm attempting to knit my first hat (that starts on double pointed needles, moves to circular needles and then comes back to double pointed) all by myself.  My wonderful Grandma helped me out with other hats, but this time I'm trying it myself.  Anyway, somehow I ended up with my needles not really being quite right.  It's going to work, but I'm not sure what I did.
