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 1^st dc to join. You’ll be skipping over the CSDC when you slst to join.  (See pics below)

  CSDC, DC in same stitch

Slst to 1^st dc to join

Hardly a seam!
