What if you followed what she does in the video but also tie the tails of the yarn together? I’m not sure how it would work but it might add a little extra comfort since the knot would still be there but hidden and secured with the technique used in the video. I haven’t switched colours much when crocheting and haven’t crocheted in a little while but definitely want to start again soon. I’m definitely the same way though, I tie knots whenever I’m worried about how a yarn project will hold together (knitting, crocheting, etc).
Good 😆 better than hours of work to get oofed in the wash. The only thing that that would be a good idea with is wool because it felts to itself and makes a fleece.
My great grandma taught me to crochet when I was around 8. I crochet to this day and I have NEVER seen a color transitioning so clean. 😭 I do this complicated way. This is so much better.
I have used this method forever, however, I fold the “tails” up and over the new yarn BEFORE make the single chain. Then I continue on just as you showed. It does save A LOT of time
i have been knitting my whole life and recently crocheting and i have always just cut the old color and tied on a new one! super easy and no one can tell.
I have been crocheting for 3 year. But I've never had the patience to crochet something big and I've kind of quit over time. But I've been watching your Temperature blanket series and it inspired me to to start crocheting again. I hope to start a bigger project soon. And maybe next year I will start a tempature blanket. Thank you! I love your channel!
Just a thought. Perhaps try a blanket/ throw made from simple squares, like a Granny pattern. It may not seem so daunting. Good luck. And you can do it! 😀
I learned to crochet when I was maybe like 9 years old. Finally made a large item (a blanket), because I bought super bulky yarn so it worked up faster and felt more satisfying to see it grow quickly 😂
Lmao, I never could figure out YT tutorials about changing colors so I just winged it and did what seemed like common sense and since it worked I just kept doing it, I’m happy to know I was doing it right even if I had to figure it out myself.
Wow! I’ve been crocheting for a few years now and never touched color changing because it looked too complicated. Thank you so much for making my life better!
@@purelightapologetics4930 nah man you should have seen my knots because i wanted to be fancy and do a 30 stitch wide scarf with 6.5mm yarn nah man you aint getting that out of one skein
I forget where I originally learned that technique but that's how I do it to I makes changing colors so much easier and I love being able to crochet around the tails so I don't have to go back and try to weave them in later, because that was always kind of hard for me
I can’t wait till my stitches look nice. It’s day three of learning and they don’t look bad but definitely uneven. I think I finally figured out the best way for me to keep my yarn taught.
I can tell you that I used to do that with the ends but as a crocheted for almost 50 yrs now I can also tell you that the ends can and a lot of times do come out.
My Uncle used to make amazing blankets with a ton of different colors like that... he taught me the basics of crochet and knitting but this was one of the things that was always a mystery to me.
I would throw just a quick little double knot on there, and I do because I've had projects come apart like this because just weaving in those ends isn't going to necessarily secure it enough to prevent that from unraveling. Especially if it's a blanket or something that you've told the person they can wash in a machine, even on delicate
Those ends are not secure. You must "weave" in your ends back and forth. These will work their way loose and leave holes as the blanket gets used and washed ✌️❤️😊
I don't really understand how to weave in ends. Your comment has helped a bit. But I did realize myself that this is not the way to go because of exactly what you said the ends just come out.
I was I Tennessee The week before the heat advisory and my family keeps saying if we came a week later we would be going the the water park at Dollywood instead of the park
I always tie a knot before I crochet over my ends. I had a blanket come out of the wash with an end undone and unraveled about 6 rows once. After that I ALWAYS tie a knot. It works the same, you just tie a small knot before you work over the ends. :)
I use this same technique, although I leave the tails a bit longer. I usually crochet them into the row for about 10 stitches and then weave the tail back on itself twice. This ensures the yarn goes a different direction 3 times so it won’t come out. Tedious, but I’ve never had a project unravel doing it this way. Crocheting it into the row the first time just saves you from weaving it once.
i have been crocheting for a while and i never use knots, its not necessary, i recommend leaving a long tail and weaving it through your work, if you just crochet over them it will come apart, hope you enjoy your day and crochet
I ❤️ that you share this technique with everyone because I've used it for years and never had issues with it ever coming out! Short, to the point, and easy! Love it keep doing what you're doing! 👏 🥳
THANK YOU FOR WEAVING YOUR ENDS IN LIKE THIS its how i do it and this is like the first time i’ve seen anyone else do it like this and it makes so much sense because everyone complains about weaving in ends and i’m just like screaming “CROCHET IT IN AS YOU GO” at my phone 😂
Ty for the refresher. I suffered a stroke and could no longer hold the small, thin, typical hook in my hand tightly or properly and 3yrs later, I finally got myself a nice ergonomic set with rubber handles. My 10yo son said he wants a scarf bc it is currently -3 outside and I couldn't remember how to drop a color completely. I really hope I don't let him down. This is my 1st project since then.
This lady is AMAZING I’m a beginner at crochet and currently making a blanket this was my first time learning how to change colours and I did it first try thanks so much
You're energy is always so positive and your voice is so calming to me, and I just feel like you'd be awesome to be friends with! I'm so glad i found you to learn from!
Ever since I learned that trick of crocheting in your ends instead of saving it till later it makes me less nervous about doing projects that use color changes
Thank you 🎉 I have watched at least three different videos of how to do this and they have all done it differently and it is messy. This is how I figured out how to do it myself the way you did it🎉
This is the first time I have ever seen anyone work/weave in their ends the way I do! And it’s so effective! I’ve never had any problems with it in over 20 years of crocheting
OMG thank you so much I ran out of yarn, making my mother scarf and I didn’t know how to continue! Thank you so much you also taught me from another short after crochet😄 thank youuu!!!!!☺️ love your vids
Thank you for sharing that! I just wanted to say that I think you look fabulous with your make up and hair the way it is! Just a compliment. I like to give compliments.
I always forget about crochet during the year then get back into it during the holidays to make gifts for people. I really appreciate quick, to-the-point videos like this because I can't be watching a thirteen minute video of something i just need a refresher for. Thank uuu
You’re the only one who has helped me understand how to change a color. I’ve been cutting them and then tying a knot at the end 🤦🏼♀️
Same this is way cleaner
it's a good idea to tie it so it's more secure but it might unravel if it's cut too short. you can always tie a knot and still crochet the ends in
@@dq8431 yes!! This is what I do
Same
Ii
I always tie an unhealthy amount of knots because I can’t handle the thought of any of my projects falling apart even if it’s unlikely😂
This is actually what I’m wondering about myself

I'm sitting on an afghan currently coming apart. It happens. Even with 30 years experience.
I tie a knot out of an abundance of caution, but I don't get unhealthy about it. lol
Another tip to add to this: for extra security, you can tie those 2 ends together with a single knot before weaving them in
I was thinking the same thing. Better safe then sorry .
@@liviapopsor8242 especially on projects when your switching frequently, id be scared of the integrity of it
but really. Why would it unravel?
I've always done this and my projects never fall apart.
I mean I feel like If your a a beginner this is best in case of frogging.
This is the kinda productive content I want on the internet
Whenever I change colours in my projects I tie the ends together so it doesn’t fall apart cuz I’m very anxious about my work coming undone lol
Me too!
Same. I'm also lazy so I just keep going after I run out of a yarn color.
Same herr
Her short ends were actually giving me anxiety lol I need them long to ensure it doesn't get loose.
Facts…I was like 😮.
My great grandma taught me to crochet when I was around 8. I crochet to this day and I have NEVER seen a color transitioning so clean. 😭 I do this complicated way. This is so much better.

What is a Temperature blanket?
You will never know why I have so many likes.
I THOUGHT THAT WAS JUST ME-
@@shroom- SAME OMG-
@@shroom- ME TOO-
That static scared the hell outta me its 2am 😭
When i heard the static i thought it was just me because my head have been doing that. (I don't know if that is how you spell "heard")
Thank you for all your shorts, you've singlehandedly taught me how to crochet 🫶😂
THANK YOU! No knots in project! I do put your video on every time I crochet, God forbid I remember how to do this! 😊☺️😸😉
Been crocheting for years and I just learned something new! Thank you!

@@dio6586 Exactly!
Finally, crochet videos reached my feed
same lmao
i’ve never followed a tutorial for crochet, i just freehand stuff until it looks good, but somehow i actually figured this one out!
Your crochet is so neat, clean and consistent! I love it
Wow! I’ve been crocheting for a few years now and never touched color changing because it looked too complicated. Thank you so much for making my life better!
It isn’t just a method for color changing, you can also just use it for when you run out of a ball of yarn
@@saturncosmic4449 I know! I've been just trying for one skein wonders for so many years. 😅

….THIS IS GENIUS !!! I literally always skip weaving my ends till later bc I never wanna go dig out a needle 😅😅😅😅
I used to use this method but things that get used a lot fall apart extremely easy with this!
I would do this but still tie a 🪢knot
Thank you SO MUCH for making this so clear. Perfect timing for me to see this, too!
Thank you so much for teaching me how to switch colors for the very first time. 😊
When you are early but don't know what to say.
Cool video though!!!!
I can tell you that I used to do that with the ends but as a crocheted for almost 50 yrs now I can also tell you that the ends can and a lot of times do come out.
Never thought of crocheting the knots in! That’s so smart
My Uncle used to make amazing blankets with a ton of different colors like that... he taught me the basics of crochet and knitting but this was one of the things that was always a mystery to me.
Thank you I’ve been trying to figure this out haha
I'm so jealous how you easily crochet 😭😭😭😭
The sudden static made me flinch wasn’t expecting it

Tysm, this was straightforward and simple, and explained perfectly! ❤❤❤
I love this weave in method !! Tysm for the new idea !!
I needed this a year ago. I can't believe this is JUST coming up on my shorts now, I wish I saw this a long time ago haha!
I’m soooo thankful I can now crochet with your tuts!
Those ends are not secure. You must "weave" in your ends back and forth. These will work their way loose and leave holes as the blanket gets used and washed ✌️❤️😊
Agreed. Used this method on a blanket for my mom and all the ends are poking through. It’s annoying to weave but it’s well worth it.
Completely true. Those ends are going to come loose and a lot of work will be lost. Not leaving the tails long enough either.
Came here to say this
I don't really understand how to weave in ends. Your comment has helped a bit. But I did realize myself that this is not the way to go because of exactly what you said the ends just come out.
I cut the end of the yarn of each color and tie them together then proceed because to me it will come undone lol.
I was just going to ask won’t it come undone. Pity because whatever she’s making looks so nice.
I've been crocheting for 15 years and i didnt know about this. THANK YOU
Hey, I've actually been doing this without any instruction! Glad to see I've mostly been doing it right.
I was I Tennessee The week before the heat advisory and my family keeps saying if we came a week later we would be going the the water park at Dollywood instead of the park
Will it not break apart after a while without a knot to secure the ends? I'm a beginner and I feel insecure leaving the ends like that
I always tie a knot before I crochet over my ends. I had a blanket come out of the wash with an end undone and unraveled about 6 rows once. After that I ALWAYS tie a knot. It works the same, you just tie a small knot before you work over the ends. :)
yes it will, but knots aren't necessary. I would never trust this project in a washing machine.
I use this same technique, although I leave the tails a bit longer. I usually crochet them into the row for about 10 stitches and then weave the tail back on itself twice. This ensures the yarn goes a different direction 3 times so it won’t come out. Tedious, but I’ve never had a project unravel doing it this way.

Finally someone that teached well
great tip! I already did the first bit of this automatically but weaving the ends in as you go is so clever, I'll definitely have to try this!
Ive come back to this video a few times. I wish you could save shorts in a playlist on here 🙄😒
Thank you for this !!
I have never had ends stay weaved in with this method. I like the two directions method
I didnt know abt the chain at the end thing, thank you so much, no tutorials ive found have ever explained that
You make it look so easy. I have always tied them together. So glad you showed me a much smoother way. Thank you Thank you Thank you
I like that. Tying off the end kinda make it difficult to pull the yarn through. Thank you girl, you saved my tail.
“New thing of yarn” omg that exact wording I’ve used thousands of times before i love it
Have been doing this for a long time!!! Not everyone agrees with this, but I like it..... makes like so much easier!!! Thanks
Thank you! I am trying to learn how to crochet and this was very helpful!
THX SO MUCH I JUST STARTED CROCHET AND THESE MINI SHORT LESSONS HELP SAVE SOOO MUCH TIME!!!!

Thank you for making an easy to follow short tutorial.There was no long annoying preamble. I really appreciated that.
Thanks for that tip. It really helped with me changing colors on my scarfs
Your the only person who made me understand this step I love you thank you! 🥰
Just tried for thr first time! Thanks for explaining this so easily! It was tricky, but I think it worked
This saved me so much weaving 😊❤
I’m wildly freaking impressed by your speed and skill. Great job!

OMG I haven’t been crocheting/weaving in the ends, that’s genius!

I swear when I first learned this I was soooo excited!! I hate weaving in ends!
This lady is AMAZING I’m a beginner at crochet and currently making a blanket this was my first time learning how to change colours and I did it first try thanks so much
Omg. The sides are so straight!
I hope I get that good eventually.
That's how I do it. No one taught it to me. It just makes sense to crochet the ends in, as you go.

This is the first time I have ever seen anyone work/weave in their ends the way I do! And it’s so effective! I’ve never had any problems with it in over 20 years of crocheting
I always did by accident and that I was doing something wrong 😮
It makes me so happy so happy to think I've been right all this time ❤
Thank you!! My daughter is way ahead of me on crochet and I have been off too long! These hints help me!

ahh im so excited to start crocheting! thank you for this video!!
THIS IS SO HELPFUL THANK YOU
I do this too! I thought I was crazy when most people I saw switch colors would tie them together
This is magical.... I only knew knots ... this changes everything
Thank you for making this process so easy clear and simple! I’ve been confused for years!😂🙏🏻
OMG thank you so much I ran out of yarn, making my mother scarf and I didn’t know how to continue! Thank you so much you also taught me from another short after crochet😄 thank youuu!!!!!☺️ love your vids

oh my goodness... that technique is brilliant!
Nahhh cause that weave in would’ve saved my life for this mini skirt I’m creating!!! First time doing an actual fashion product since 6😭
Starting a temperature blanket and I'm still a beginner so this is super helpful ❤️
Crocheting is intimidating! But I wanna learn so I gotta start somewhere
This is how I’ve always transitioned my colors. So much easier than weaving in all the ends
Love this - so many other videos suggest weaving the tails in later which worries me because I feel like they will unravel later.
Been crocheting off and on for about 2-3 years. HOW DID I NOT KNOW YOU NEEDED TO CHAIN ONE BEFORE STARTING A NEW ROW
LEARNED THIS WHILE EXPERIMENTING SUCH A COOL TECHNIQUE
I always forget about crochet during the year then get back into it during the holidays to make gifts for people. I really appreciate quick, to-the-point videos like this because I can't be watching a thirteen minute video of something i just need a refresher for. Thank uuu
