Cast on normally with contrasting waste yarn and knit a row or two that way. Then start knitting with the project yarn. When you're ready to start knitting in the other direction, take a thinner knitting needle and pick up the bottom row of project yarn stitches (pick up every other vertical bar of yarn). Then cut off the contrasting waste yarn and you're good to go. I think TECHKnitter has more about this on her blog, along with her usual excellent diagrams.
