41 Free Seamless Patterns to Crochet and Knit

If you love to stitch and dislike seaming your projects together, seamless projects are right for you! Some patterns, such as hats, shawls, and throws, lend themselves to be seamless — the only time you’ll need a yarn needle is to do finishing steps like sewing on buttons or weaving in the ends. But even projects that are traditionally made in pieces, such as sweaters, can be made seamless! Explore these 41 seamless projects from Yarnspirations today, so you can stitch more and sew less.

Clothing

Seamless clothing is more unusual. The garments tend to be looser and less fitted, since they’re made all in one piece. Because it’s a little harder to find on your own, I’ve included more (although not all!) of the patterns here.

Accessories

Hats, scarves, and shawls are the naturally seamless projects. While there are some that are seamed, seams on scarves and shawls are rare, and many hats are knit in the round. The accessories given here are just a sample of the ones available for both crochet and knitting on the Yarnspirations website.

Throws

Many throws are made in one piece. They can be colorful, with a rainbow of stripes done in plain stitching or join-as-you-go motifs in different colors. Take a look at other knit throw and crochet blanket patterns from Yarnspirations — there are many more seamless projects in there.
