[Nfb-krafters-korner] stitching together pieces of a crocheted project

[Powers, Terry (NIH/OD/DEAS) [E]]

Hi LM;

I would pin your 2 pieces together, lining up your rows, as best as you can.  Maybe every 5 or 10 rows.  You should be able to do a weave in and out, stitch, going up through stitch one of side one and down through stitch one of side two; up through side one, stitch two and down through stitch two in side two.   

Stitch over your tail, while working.  Weave in your end at the end or slide it under a few of your stitches.

Ask Tonya if she has a better method.

Hello,

There are a few baby blankets I'm going to be making in the near future but looking at the patterns I see I am to stitch together the different pieces. Do I just take a yarn needle and thread yarn and literally stitch them together? Do I lay the pieces side by side and insert the needle from the front into the back on piece A and then bring the needle from the back to the front on piece B and repeat?

Or, is there a whole other way to do this?

LM
