- In this video I demonstrate a crocheted seam, and we take a look at how it compares to the mattress stitch.

Game changer! I'm one of those that can't stand mattress stitch. I have a vest I need to finish and I'm going to use this technique. Love, love, love your videos. Thank you.
I am about to begin seaming a cardigan and wondered whether it was feasible to crochet it - my sewing skills are a bit blah! - and was so glad to see this. Can't wait to give it a try! Thank you
Yes, I just found this video 6 years after you posted it but I just knitted my first pieced sweater last summer. I've been putting off putting it together because I HATE sewing period! Imagine my very pleasant surprise when I thought about slip-stitching the pieces together that yours was the first video suggested by Google. To date you have been my favorite teacher because your teaching methods make sense to my brain and I get the bonus that like me you knit and crochet. Thank you. :)
Thank you so much for your amazingly easy to follow tutorials! You taught me how to knit and I love it!
I like this for setting in sleeves. Very easy to undo and redo if things aren't lining up just right
I absolutely love your videos. They are always very straight to the point, and clearly explained in the shortest time…..thank you.❤
I'm reading Laerke Bagger's book and she loves this tecnique. So I'm going to trying it. Thank you!
perfect for those who are crocheters that are now learning to knit. Thats me. Thank you
You can do it. It is not as difficult as it appears. I am not a crocheter so I feel like I can comment.
You must be psychic! I'm halfway through knitting a bag that is finished with a crochet seam. This is so timely and helpful. Thank you!
Thank you so much! 🙏😊 My sweater’s sleeve was torn along the seam. Now I can sew it up!
Love your videos. This is exactly what I need as I just finished a sweater and need to seam the sides. This is better than mattress stitch as I don't need to measure how much yarn I need. Thanks
nice option for my arsenal. I can see how this may be a good option if you were working with really splitty (not a word but we'll go with it haha) yarn, or one that is really hard to see the ladders for mattress stitch. I've knit some things in super fine yarn in black and deep colors that made it nearly impossible to find where I was in mattress. so this would be a great alternative.
as always, love your videos and look forward to them! can't wait to see some new knit work tutorials!
thank you so much for comparing and giving option to mattress stitch. I have a fear of mattress stitch, in a knitting class year back (when first started knitting) knitting teacher made "focus" of me in class because I simply couldn't understand mattress stitch. was humiliated.
I would say that teacher was a very poor teacher. She/He should have focused on a student that "got it" and had that student help her/him help the other students. You might have had a better chance of learning the mattress stitch from someone else.
Thank you, exactly what I was looking for. I’m a crocheter who can knit some, I’m knitting a kimono cardigan and hate to seam with mattress stitch ❤️
You are awesome Staci! I've learned so much from watching you on RUclips and Facebook! I like this way of seaming much better than the mattress stitch. If you ever need to take your item apart, this seam would be much easier to do especially if you use a different color of yarn. Thanks for posting!
This is precisely the skill I have been wanting to learn. Thank you.
I think the mattress stitch seam looks a lot better in your comparison. One column of stitches in crochet stitch sample looks compressed. But maybe it's just these samples and maybe it would block out.
I like this because it makes for a very stretchy seam.
I hate the mattress stitch. I just cant get it to look nice
Looking at the front I thought the mattress stitch looked like a smoother join as well. Nice to have the option, but like you I think I would prefer the mattress stitch. 😉
I am really glad I stumbled upon your site, VeryPink! there is always something I learn from you :)
This is very helpful. Thanks for all the great tips. 😀😀
happy to watch all your videos 💕💕💕
So easy to pull apart if required; and so neat and easy. Thankyou
Excellent tutorial, thank you.
Thanks. Love this tutorial.⛄
Thank you. Exactly what i was looking for.
Nice option, especially if you intend to take your project apart eventually.
I'm hoping this will make seaming a black 4 ply jumper easier with my poor eyesight. Wish me luck. 😊
How do you end the row? I'm not a crocheter and would like some instruction. Thank you.
Pull the yarn through the last loop, the loop will hold the yarn in place, then weave in the ends :)
I wonder whether going beneath one half of the "V" knit stitch rather than both legs would make for less bulk. Think I'm going to experiment. Thank you for the idea.
Yes that would create less bulk, but the seam would not be able to handle as much stress. You can decide whether to go under one or both legs depending on the amount of strain that will be on the seam.
thank you this was very helpful...
I’m working with knitted sections for Warm Up America … and I am so lost. I don’t knit. I have no desire to learn. I know virtually nothing about knitting. But I have to join these … and I have no clue what I’ll do about the sides if the loops/legs aren’t there … Great video though.
Very helpful!
Thank you, it's a really great tip.
Nice!!!
Love it. Thank you
Love this, thanks
What kind of edge stitches did you use here? Are they suitable for any kind of piece joining, e.g. sleeves to body, neckband, etc?
Staci: Are the Knitter's Pride crochet hooks ergonomically easy on sensitive hands? I have Knitter's Pride knitting needles with condensed wood -- & they're Fabulous. But are their crochet hooks as good as, say, Furl's crochet hooks?
This was awesome, thank you!
this is excellent if youve misplaced all your yarn friendly needles to get a work together lol

ahh, this video is 12 hours to late for me. ;-) But there's always a next time. thanks, can't wait to avoid mattress stitch the next time.
