How Do You Change Yarn Colors Within A Crochet Round?

0

Changing yarn colors within a crochet round is done during the final yarn over (YO) of the stitch so that the stitch does not end up half one color and half another. For striped patterns, the nature of crochet rounds allows you to leave one color at the beginning of the round, while you work with another, then pick up the first color again for the next found. For color changes in the middle of a round, you can carry the color not in use horizontally across the stitches and crochet over the strand to hide it until you need it. Crochet your project in the round until you come to the stitch where you want to change colors. Begin the next stitch with the old yarn color until you come to the final yarn over. For example, in a single crochet stitch you would insert the hook and pull a loop up with the old yarn, then stop. With a double crochet stitch you would yarn over, insert the hook, pull through two loops, then stop. Yarn over with the new color yarn instead of the old and pull the yarn
