Seams do add stability, thank you, Ivete. I love them.

My personal take on it is that seams suck and I take them out whenever I can. HOWEVER, I think they do serve a structural purpose on some knits. If I’m knitting a very loose yarn, such as my current Chamonix sweater, I’m gonna do it flat with seams b/c otherwise it’s likely to either stretch forever or get deformed. I think seams add stability. In circular garmets you also sometimes get that obnoxious “biased” look and you can avoid that by knitting flat, too . . .
