In this video I demonstrate a crocheted seam, and we take a look at how it compares to the mattress stitch.
The Knitter’s Pride Dreamz crochet hooks I use in the video can be found here.

Thanks so much!!!! I have a lace piece that I have dreaded seaming, I think the crocheted seam will be easier than mattress stitch for this, since it’s a dark alpaca. Really appreciate your work!
Hi, the timing of this is perfect. Knitting a baby blanket in squares and wanted to join them by crocheting. If you want the color of the yarn you are crocheting with for the seam to show, would I use a larger crochet hook? I am joining the squares with black and would like a row of black to show? Trying to duplicate flannel LOL
Thank you,
Kathy
