Seaming
Knitting - Basic Techniques
Stockinette stitch
Pick up 1 inside stitch, 1 row at a time | |
Using the leftover yarn from the cast-on stitches as the seaming yarn or a strand of yarn 2 to 3 times as long as the seam area, pick up the crosswise cast-on stitch on the left piece, and insert the needle into the crosswise yarn of the first row on the right-hand piece. | |
Continue picking up, 1 row at a time, the crosswise yarn between the 2 edge stitches, alternating pieces. | |
Pull the seam stitches tight as you go to create an almost invisible finish. |
