seaming berber loop pile carpet against the grain
I am trying to seam a loop pile carpet against the grain(the opposite of the carpet rows). I know it doesnt seam as nice as a seam with the carpet running the same direction but I have no choice. can anybody tell me how to cut and prepare the carpet edge for this application. Is the carpet cut on the back side with a straight edge, can a row cutter be used. any tips with this procedure would be appreciated!! -thank you Sean

You can fold the face and cut it with shears too.
Row cutting usually works.
I row cut full if it is tight and difficult, and go back and clean it up with my big shears or my old nap shears.
