Using the invisible seam is a common method when you want to join crochet projects or pieces together. It is especially popular when joining squares, motifs, panels or ends on infinity scarves and neck warmers.
I use this method almost exclusively within my patterns because I like the neat and tidy look. This is just my preference and there are many other ways to join and connect your work.
I’d love to share how I do the invisible seam. Read more about it below…

Crochet coasters are always a fun, quick and practical project to make.

They also don’t have to be used as a traditional coaster. These projects can be used under plant pots to help protect your table tops from getting scratched.

Free crochet pattern coming your way! Although it’s August and we’ve had some recent heat waves, I can feel the mornings changing. That cool, crisp and refreshing air early in the morning as autumn begins to creep in. I absolutely love it. Summer is lovely but it’s never been my favourite. Autumn is a time of change, all things cozy and the perfect opportunity to dig out my cardigans and box of handmade scarves.
Inspired by the recent cool mornings, the Loops and Ridges scarf came about quite naturally as I was playing around with stitch combinations. This scarf is full of texture and cozy with a simple but fun sectioned repeat. I used WeCrochet Heatherly in the beautiful “Sweet Bing” colourway to make this lovely and eye catching project.

Have you ever bought yarn strictly based on the colourway? I think many of us have. I was browsing online (you’ll understand the rabbit hole of yarn shopping) and found Lion Brand Landscapes. It looked very beautiful and I immediately added some to my cart without knowing much about it. Sometimes the challenge of figuring out a plan after I bought the yarn can be kind of fun. I also thought it would be a great opportunity to add another yarn review to the blog so I could share my experience with others.
You can find my review along photos below…
