🎥 Video Tutorial: Invisible Seams

I wish I had learned this technique many years ago to create straighter, more even, and virtually invisible seams when crocheting in the round. This technique is abbreviated in my patterns as “inv-join.”

👉 Below are step-by-step written instructions and a video tutorial to guide you so you can add this valuable technique to your crochet toolbox.

How to Crochet the Invisible Join (inv-join)

Step 1. Remove the loop from the hook and extend it a bit to keep it from coming undone. Turn the work to the wrong side (WS), ensuring the working yarn strand does not cross in front of the hook or to the work’s Right Side (RS).

Step 2. With WS facing, insert the hook into the first stitch of the round, place the loop back onto the hook, making sure not to twist it, then draw the loop through the stitch.

Step 3. Turn the work back around with RS facing, and gently tug the loop until the first and last stitches of the round are right next to one another to complete the inv‑join. 🥳
