Crocheted Seams
Melissa asked if I would show how I did the seams. I tried my best to take pictures of the second shoulder, but it's very hard to capture the process single-handed.
Step 1: Insert the hook through corresponding stitches on the front and back pieces. Make sure you insert the hook into the stitches and not merely into the bound-off edge?that's where I went wrong the first time.
Step 2: Pull a loop through from the back. Use the hook to pull the loop on the left through the loop on the right.
One stitch made. Repeat Step 1.
Here's the finished seam. It will flatten out more with wear.
Just to be completely obsessive, I used different colors for each segment.
I hope this helps.
