I'm mainly excited to share this pattern with you, because it is the first time I'm sharing my seamless method! Let me just say that I have tried so many "seamless" methods, and I really do think that this one (mine!) is the best! :P And my amazing testers think so as well! So it's not jut me :P
You'll be starting out with a Chainless Standing Double Crochet and DC in the first spot, then when you come back around, you'll be skipping over those two stitches and slip stitching in the 2nd dc. As long as you remember this, it's really a simple hat! And your finished product with have virtually no seam! :)
I've also added pretty much every size! My sizing is based on my experience with sizing over my years of crocheting. Feel free to measure the circumference of your circle when you've finished your increase rounds to make sure it will fit the size of your recipient.
I hope you all enjoy, and I'd love to hear your thoughts on my new method! :)

Note: I’ve omitted the chains at the
begging of the rounds to get rid of the seam. I’ve added the chainless starting
double crochet instead. The CSDC of each round will act like your chain and will
be hidden in your work and not crocheted into. Make sure you place your last dc in the same stitch you placed your CSDC, and slst to the 1st dc of the round. You’ll be skipping over the CSDC when you slst to join. (See
pics below)
CSDC, DC in same stitch
Place your last dc in same stitch as you did your CSDC
Slst to 1st dc to join (you'll be skipping over your CSDC)
Hardly a seam! :)
