There is a way to do this without knitting in the round or seaming. I'm currently trying to figure out how to do multiple strands of yarn with it since ingridmatthews wants a striped scarf but if you are just using one color, the pattern is:
Cast on an even number of stitches. Each row: (k1,sl1) Repeat til end. When you slip a stitch, have the yarn to the front. Bind off.
You'll have made a tube with both ends already closed.
