I love these tips! For me it's never been a big deal where an ombre project transitions because I feel it gives the project character but it's nice that you can go through and pick how it will transition!
I love knowing this. I think this video might well be the bestest information I've ever gotten. Now I need to get that OMBRE yarn so I can work this out. I LOVE IT ❤️
Why do I always feel like I'm Beavis and or butthead laughing at some of the things you say stuff like an arm full of balls lmao and I'm like why is he so funny?!?! Am I twelve?! Well the answer to that is , mentally, yes. I am 12. Haha ❤ you
That's so cool. It was when I learned to knit socks at the beginning of the year that I even heard of manipulating the yarn. Crocheting 40 years and it's just now? Haha, not completely true. I did pull variegated to a matching spot when I'd start a new skein. For socks it was about starting at the same point in the yarn for each sock to have matching stripes . I love the idea of using these tips in my knit and crochet. Thank you!
Mikey, you are the master!!! You are a genius when it comes to understanding how those colors and stitches just flow together. Like a beautiful river. Thank you for everything you have taught me through the years.
I tried to disect a ball of this back in 2019 and had a heck of a time trying to separate the colors. Now that you've shared that there should only be five steps of color, maybe I can try again. Thanks for sharing!
Wow, Mackey nice tips. Thought only 3 colors but I see what u mean, thanks so much for this much needed lesson, will definitely try to do this on my next project. 😊 😘
EVERY VIDEO I watch of yours Mikey, I learn all these little tidbits. I can't thank you enough for sharing your wealth of knowledge! Sure thankful for your obsession with yarn!
Thank you, Mikey! Ha ha! I guessed only two colors! 🤷🏼♀️🥴 I have some Red Heart SS Ombre Yarn but haven't used it yet. Thank you for these tips I can apply to tie in the colors when I use this beautiful yarn! I love watching all your videos, love your tips! Your tutorials are the best... So in-depth, explicit and thorough that even an inexperienced crocheter can achieve fabulous results! Love your gorgeous baby blanket, too! The Crochet Crowd is one of the first channels I ever watched on UA-cam and it's still fantastic! Thank you for all you do for us, your "students of crochet"! You are, by far, the "very best instructor"! ❤️😻🧶🐰🐣🐇 Phoenix, AZ 🌵🌄🏜️
Wow I never even thought about this. I was of the school of it happens where it happens. But I think I will give this a try as I put a lot of love into the things I make. Might as well make it known that my heart is really in it. No pun intended. Thanks Mikey. 😊
Thank you for that great tip. I do that with the Caron Cakes when they don't like up. I had no idea you could do it with the ombre yarns also. Thank you for sharing this with us.
I made a “Mile a Minute” crocheted afghan for my son. I loved the play of the different colors as the strips went along. I didn’t have to match anything up. Now I have started a C2C project with the leftover yarn. Ahem, I may need to go to get more supplies to finish it. So much for using up the leftover yarn!
I made an afghan out of this yarn in the scuba color and discovered the transition issue when I had to join a new ball. I’m a beginner so it was a challenge and I didn’t want to cut another ball so I was able to pick a ball that had the color that I needed. Now that I’m done I found your idea, which is great. I am not as stressed by joining a new ball now. Very clever behind the science tip. Thank you.
😂!! You are the cutest Mikey !! I just love 💕 you so much! I love 💕 your baby blanket as well! That’s beautiful 🤩!! Thank you for all that you do and for sharing your tips and secrets 🤫 😂🙏🙏🥰🥰🥰😘😘😘😘😘😘😘
I have used this yarn many times. The aqua color does change fast, but not as fast as some cakes. I love these yarns. I use some solid yarn colors with these as well, for instance, when I do some sections of a pattern that need a solid look. Then I go right back into the ombre skein and continue. Overlay patterns work well with these ombres under. It makes a very unique look. Use a darker color for the overlay stitches. I made a chevron afghan with this yarn. The transition makes for a great look with that pattern. Can't wait to do the 2022 summer cal! Thanks, Mikey, for all you do for the crochet community.
I have made 2 large projects with this yarn and I just got really lucky… I was able to get 3 balls for one project that had similar time stamps… they worked beautifully… same with the other project
I always watch and learn never really leave comments, but you are just so joyful loved your secrets put a smile on my face hot subscribe immediately thank you for the tip!
You are so funny... Red heart ombre is my favorite I almost have every color look forward to the summer crochet along thank you Mikey I love your work.😁
Hi Mikey. Thanks for the tip. I only have a couple of skeins of RH Ombre yarn and haven't used it yet. It looks pretty though. Thank you for this tip video and all of the others you provide to us. You're a great person who knows the craft well.
beautiful, you make the world better and happier with your creations. :) is there a pattern for this baby blanket?! it is gorgeous I would love to try it
I'm currently working a C2C with Red Heart Stripes in "Polo Stripes". I don't dissect a whole skein, but I absolutely grab that center-pull of the new skein and pull until I reach the next color needed! I like to keep the color change patterns consistent.
Yes I guessed it was 5. Yes guessed. It really was hard to tell on the tablet I was on. I thought it was 7 at first because it was so hard to judge on that tablet. Thanks for the cool tips Mikey. You are Fabulous!
This is the perfect video I needed ☺️ I have been having so much trouble with my yarn I have the same color that's in the last bit of ur video looks like a blueish color I've been having issues where I needed More Of that color got the same color but then it looks different and the light blue in it is more close to white than in the other 2 balls but now iv beenovkng back and forth between different balls of the same ombre color ball to get itthe right color at the right time
I’m still a beginner but I “dissected” a ball to achieve to look I wanted. Because it was a baby blanket, there wasn’t enough rows to get to the next color. Thanks for the tips!
I love Red Heart Super Saver Ombre yarn! It makes great crochet projects like you have done. ❤❤❤❤❤
I love these tips! For me it's never been a big deal where an ombre project transitions because I feel it gives the project character but it's nice that you can go through and pick how it will transition!
I'm so glad!
I love knowing this. I think this video might well be the bestest information I've ever gotten. Now I need to get that OMBRE yarn so I can work this out. I LOVE IT ❤️
Three colors
Very helpful to create your designing pattern 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Why do I always feel like I'm Beavis and or butthead laughing at some of the things you say stuff like an arm full of balls lmao and I'm like why is he so funny?!?! Am I twelve?! Well the answer to that is , mentally, yes. I am 12. Haha ❤ you
I love your secret of cutting the yarn to get the color you want. I have done that several times using this ombre yarn.
Never thought of dissecting the yarn to color control…genius tip!!!
That's so cool. It was when I learned to knit socks at the beginning of the year that I even heard of manipulating the yarn. Crocheting 40 years and it's just now? Haha, not completely true. I did pull variegated to a matching spot when I'd start a new skein. For socks it was about starting at the same point in the yarn for each sock to have matching stripes . I love the idea of using these tips in my knit and crochet. Thank you!
It makes sense if the colour jump is a problem.
Mikey, you are the master!!! You are a genius when it comes to understanding how those colors and stitches just flow together. Like a beautiful river. Thank you for everything you have taught me through the years.
Love Red Heart! So many beautiful colors😊🧶
Thank you! 😊
Wow, i thought it was 3 colours. Thanks for the update and information. Always learning something new 😎😊
Love the idea of the dissected yarn ball! Such a great tip!
Such a great idea! Thanks for sharing and also thanks for being so fun to watch and learn from :)
Secret ball manipulation 😂 love it! So helpful as I am literally just about to start a blanket using the purple ombre. Thank you!👌💜🇬🇧
You're so welcome!
I have a RH ombré and guessed 5 colours without checking. I like that idea of colour-controlling using multiple balls. Thank you, Mikey. 😘
Great guess. Control what you can when you need it.
I tried to disect a ball of this back in 2019 and had a heck of a time trying to separate the colors. Now that you've shared that there should only be five steps of color, maybe I can try again. Thanks for sharing!
Glad I could help!
Oh my gosh! You are a genius! I love the dissection of the ball to continue the transition of color! Thank you!
genius is a steep word but I'm glad to help when I find out little tips like this.
Thank you for this. And your baby blanket is beautiful.
Thanks.
Wow, Mackey nice tips. Thought only 3 colors but I see what u mean, thanks so much for this much needed lesson, will definitely try to do this on my next project. 😊 😘
It was a great guess.
EVERY VIDEO I watch of yours Mikey, I learn all these little tidbits. I can't thank you enough for sharing your wealth of knowledge! Sure thankful for your obsession with yarn!
Thank you for doing this video. Dissecting the ombré yarn is an interesting idea.
As an aside, I am envious of your yarn shelving!
Thank you! Very useful info.
Glad it was helpful!
I love all the colors that have been coming up with. It's hard to choose what to use. Thank you for all gorgeous patterns.
Too many choice is difficult a mind-meld.
Ohhhhhh! Starting the day with Mikey and yarn secrets! Perfection!
Thanks Gina. Enjoy your day.

Phoenix, AZ 🌵🌄🏜️
You are really too kind. I just love this hobby.
I did yarn dissection on a afghan I made with SS Ombre in Anenome. That way I controlled the change in colors. It worked out wonderfully.
I do manipulation as well as the colour sometimes change and I know it will bother me a lot.
I love working with the ombre yarn. It makes a beautiful C2C blanket. I did a dissection for the borders so I could control the color change.
Sometimes it's the only way to make it feel finished eh.
Love that baby blanket. Pattern and color is beautiful
Thank you. It's our Sea Shells Baby blanket.
I love your tips. Thank you for helping me look more professional
Wow I never even thought about this. I was of the school of it happens where it happens. But I think I will give this a try as I put a lot of love into the things I make. Might as well make it known that my heart is really in it. No pun intended. Thanks Mikey. 😊
haha. You're punny! haha
OMG this is one of my Favorite videos of yours!
I use Ombre all the time and you giving me permission to Disect has saved my OCD so much pain!
I so love this ombre yarn! Thanks for this information on transitioning the colors. I only thought there were 4 colors.
You are so welcome!
ohhh the anthracite next to the pink ombre! chefs kiss
Great secret Micky. You are always a fountain of knowledge, I have learned so much from your videos. Thanks!,
My pleasure!
Perfect! I came across some ombre I wanted to use and now I know 5 colors!
I’ve used the ombré yarn for a few projects and I LOVE it. My favorite so far is the green. It’s a lot of fun to work with.
That's a great colour to play with.
YOU ARE GREAT>>>thanks.>>>very glad I found you
Thanks for the info on yarns and changing colors.
Thank you for that great tip. I do that with the Caron Cakes when they don't like up. I had no idea you could do it with the ombre yarns also. Thank you for sharing this with us.
Thank you for the tips! I love Red Heart Ombre it’s so beautiful!
You are so welcome!
Who knew, omg. Thank you Mikey! Love love!!!
So pretty… I love the ombré yarn
I guessed 4. Thanks for sharing your tips. Maybe I will try a project with ombre yarn one day.
Your pink baby blanket is beautiful!
Mikey you’re amazing and love everything you show us, tips most of all. 😊😊
Thanks so much!
Can’t wait for the summer stitch along that blanket looks AMAZING!!!! Can’t wait to try Red Heart Ombré the colors look so beautiful!!!!
Me too!!
You are a yarn genius Mikey!
I don't know about that.
Thank you Mikey for ALL your tips. I really appreciate you 👍
It's my pleasure to share when I can.
I made a “Mile a Minute” crocheted afghan for my son. I loved the play of the different colors as the strips went along. I didn’t have to match anything up.

Dissecting the yarn!What a great idea!!
I love the color change it's beautiful I will look into this yarn
That's great.
Love your tips. Transition yarns are some of my favorites. I think they work best with projects that start in the center vs back & forth.
If the width is too wide, it does factor what you are saying.
I made an afghan out of this yarn in the scuba color and discovered the transition issue when I had to join a new ball. I’m a beginner so it was a challenge and I didn’t want to cut another ball so I was able to pick a ball that had the color that I needed. Now that I’m done I found your idea, which is great. I am not as stressed by joining a new ball now. Very clever behind the science tip. Thank you.
I'm glad something I did showed you that you can explore and be confident.
You never cease to amaze me , I learn something new each time I check in. Thanks
My pleasure.

Thx. I’m really loving these tips. Great insight.
Awesome.
I don't have any secrets but Ombre is my favorite yarn at the moment. I'm making about 6 different projects with it and really loving it. :)
I find it a bit addicting.
Love using this yarn. Great bang for my buck! Love you Mikey....Jilly @ Sydney Australia 🇦🇺 💗
It's addictive to use.
I kinda do the dissecting but your video showed me some new tricks. I love that!!!! A whole new world.
I'm glad this video was helpful.
Yarn manipulation.... Brilliant! Love it, As a newbie I have never really thought about that.
hehe.
