Mattress Stitch equivalent for crochet?

[susanjp]

I crocheted my Mum a bag for summer, and now need to join the two sides together. Is there an easy way to join two pieces of sc? I know Mattress stitch is great for knitting pieces, so is there a similar thing for crochet?

Thanks :)

I just slip stitch it together cause I hate sewing. :)
