Do you want to seam to pieced knitted in garter stitch together vertically? Then you can easily do so using the mattress stitch. It creates a rather invisible seam that lays flat, and it's very easy to do on top of that.
If you look closely at the ridges of your fabric, then you will see that they consist of little bumps. And one of them is on top, the other on the bottom.
So, simply alternate going through a bottom bump on the left side and a top bump on the right side and then pull tight to close the seam.
You will need a tapestry needle to do that.

Was very helpful. Thank you for sharing ❤
Thank you Norman...appreciate your videos...very easy to follow your instructions!!
Great tutorial
I just found your second channel by reading a comment on your first, I subscribed here too 😁 This was so well explained. I have been knitting since I was around 5 or 6, by watching my mom knit for my soon to be born baby brother. I understood and could execute the mechanics of the stitches but didn't get the tension concept until about 8, when I had knitting class in school. I've been knitting now for 52 years, not counting my beginning attempts with some breaks in between. I have learned or relearning more basics as to the how's and why's we do what we do, by watching you. You are such a wonderful and effective teacher. Please keep making more videos. Thank you for the efforts you make to teach us. Sending you greetings from Panama City Beach, Florida 🥰🧡💯👏🏖
Very happy to hear you found my second channel as well. I felt I needed a home for very short videos that explain basic techniques with slow-motion parts. Greetings from Munich, Germany
Thank you so much for this video. I just finished my very first sweater in garter stitch. I wanted to take the pieces to a seamstress to put it together because I’ve spent so much time. I don’t want to mess it up now! Watching your video has given me hope that I can tackle this myself! Thank you and God bless you.
You just saved my sanity. :) I was trying to seam two pieces of garter stitch for an art project. One side solid, one variegated colors. The problem was the tricky but beautiful yarn. It's spun in such a way that it goes from thick to very thin, making some stitches extremely hard to see (although the texture is interesting) especially in garter. Thanks to your video, I now have a happily united piece, with a rather "seamless" seam. Thank you very much.
Glad I could help, Noami. have fun with your your project. it sure sounds very special!
Using this technique made the most beautiful seam I have ever made!
Wonderful! happy to be of help violett!
So this is where the mattress suture in surgery gets its name from. ❤
Hi! This is exactly what I needed to see. Thanks!
Great! It is a lovely and quite simple technique that a lot of knitters aren't aware of - but so useful!
Thank you Norman!
This is very clear to understand and works so well, thank you!
You're very welcome!
Thank you, that was very informative and easy. 😊
Thank you, Norman. This video was super helpful, clear, and well photographed. I love how you get to the point too - sometimes I wonder if people who post get "credit" for how long they can keep people watching their posts.
well, actually, that'S closer to the truth than you think. I am literally making no money with this channel because the videos are so short. People on youtube are, generally speaking, more interested in entertainment. So, the longer the video, the more entertaining it is, the more money you earn. And no money, means no sucess, means you need to find another job :P
I like the way you teach, thank you very much 😊
very happy to hear that, josephine
Very clear explanation! Thank you!
You are welcome, Esmerelda!
Very useful, thank you 🤗
Fabulous, thank you!
Wonderful thankyou
Hi there. Thank you for this very clear video. Just one thing, if you haven't already done so: could you show us how to switch from garter stitch to (bottom loop to top loop) to purl or plain. And if you reply -- this being 3 years ago -- I might quiz you as to how to follow a pattern using 'wrap' and turns .
hm..i don't think this warrants an extra video. I do have a video on the kitchener stitch, tho.
Thankyou, very well done
What a revelation! Thank you. ❤️
You are so welcome, Caro!
Thank you so much❤
Perfect!!
Very helpful! ❤❤❤
Glad you think so, Pernille :)
Fantastic
Thank you
You're welcome
Thank for this great video! Question: do you do anything special with each end of the sewing yarn, especially when using a separate piece of yarn? Any knots required or just weaving the ends?
this will largely depend on what kind of seam it is and if it sees a lot of stress..and of course the fiber used. I will always weave in the ends but I might sneak in a knot (like when you weave in cotton).
@@nimbleneedlestwo Thank you! I just made beautiful seams on a little buttonhole bag and they look perfect! I really appreciate this video, and YOU!
I live the way you explain things. I am in need of help. I have knitted 5 panels of different colors for a baby blanket for my 9th grandchild. I don’t know what color to use to join them neatly The sides that I’ll be joining are garter stitched. Can you give me advice?
sorry..didn't see this comment earlier. Well, in sewing you often use a grey thread - when in doubt. It kinda is least conspicious. But if your gauge is tight enough, you will barely see it anyway.
Wonderful Thank you! I do wonder how you tie off the ends of the yarn you just used to seam the two pieces together? Do you have a trick to it?
you can hide it in the seam on the wrong side using a tapestry needle.
