i always tie a knot with the tails before weaving them in because i can’t deal with the 0.1% chance of my project unraveling- but i LOVE this method because it’s quick and easy :D
So I guess just before chrocheting the two ends in your new stitches, you can tie like a double knot and then crochet the two colour as she did? Sorry I’m absolutely new and I want to try this technique!!
Over time and going through the wash enough your project might come loose (and end up frogging) with this technique, so i would recommend doing a box knot to tie the two tails together and than crochet over them. I’ve made this mistake with a really complex blanket that took me AGES to finish, so learn from me🥴
I love your content! I'm 31, been crocheting for 20 years and I remember as a kid going to the library for crochet books to learn new, fun patterns. I am THRIVING with all the YarnTubers and crocheters sharing content now. 💕 P.s. Look up an OG book called 200 Crochet Blocks for Blankets, Afghans and Throws! So many fun stitches and simple patterns to learn!
Word of warning: I did this with a blanket I made and those tail pieces ended up working their way out over the course of a couple years and then completely unraveling in some spots, so really be careful doing this. I'd say it might be okay for something decorative or small that gets light use, but for every day items like scarves or blankets, go ahead and tie some kind of firm knot!
i’m not a beginner and have been crotcheting for multiple years and i’m working on a monkey right now and this is really helpful i just cut the yarn and tied a know but this is much better thanks!
You are an amazing UA-camr and you are so creative, i love your video's, keep going! I am going to make a temperature blanket because of you. You give great tips
Thanks! This helps a lot :) I am starting a project of making 14 fluffy crochet animals with fluffy yarn, and this will help. Thanks a lot and love your vids!
Honestly if you don’t want to take long on a project and you don’t care what the stitching looks like then you can double crochet it. This trick changes a lot more than you think
No lies detected! I do the exact same thing; tucking in the yarn within the color change, cutting it, switching while 2 loops are on the hook, ✨EVERYTHING✨ 👌🏾💯
TY for these Holly I cant stress to you enough how many videos I've watched and their hands were either in the way or weren't showing where to hold the yarn properly. Your my main inspiration to not give up & that I will one day achieve getting to this stage of crochet creations ❤
Personally, I also will take the prior tail, loop it over the 2 loops on the hook, then continue & stitch over it that way, especially if it's a dc stitch, looping the tail over the second part of the stitch. This way, the direction of the tail is not just in a straight line & is less likely to be pulled all of the way out!
Dude I usually just cut my (blue) original color and tie it with the new color (gold) and cut the strings off. Sometimes it leaves a little nib but I don't mind it. But I will totally try this.
Okay so I crochet but for some reason all of my projects end up turning like triangles with a base gets thinner and thinner and thinner and I don't know why and I keep thinking my transition to the next row is wrong
Could be a few things: -your tension is inconsistent (unlikely) -you're skipping the first stitch in the row -you're skipping the last stitch in the row If it's not your tension, count your stitches per row (or however many the pattern says you need). If it's not the same every time, check to make sure you're working the first and last stitch of each row.
Your crochet hook is slipping so smoothly off of the yarn! How do you do it? I am new to crocheting and I use plastic hooks. What am I doing wrong? THANKS!!! 🙃😊
I know this is crochet, but it's the same deal with knitting as well: certain material needles paired with different yarn fabrics can make your needle slip or drag. Steel needles are very easy for the yarn to slide on, while wood and some plastic can make the yarn get caught and difficult to work with. Cotton will be more grippy, while silk will not. Testing out different combos can help you figure out what works best for you!
Are you working in rows or spiral? It's hard to switch colors in a spiral because the rows don't close/end and your color change is pretty obvious. If you're working in rows, same principle as this video! On the last yarn over of the row (the one where you slip stitch in the first stitch of the row before chaining for the next one), change yarns to the next color. Good luck!
You can make it less obvious by doing a slip stitch. Another way I saw was doing an invisible fasten off when you want to change, then ss join and continue with your new color.
This is so useful cause I was in the middle of a project and the pattern Sadie word for word “now you switch the yarn to the second color” and I’m like WHAT THE HECK DOES THAT MEAN! 😂 ❤
Always always always tuck your yarn tails into work when you can!! Nothing like finishing project and then having to go back and weave in yarn tail ends with darning needle. 😂
I crochet my ends into the project like you but i have little fuzzy ends sticking out of the crochet when i reach the end of the ends 😅 I would appreciate some tips on how to get rid of them, thanks!
I just can’t seem to hold the yarn correctly. I don’t know if it matters, but I do have pretty small hands.. I’ve been trying for awhile and I just can’t seem to get it right. What am I doing wrong?
Watch videos! Try a lot of ways because different people hold their yarns differently( there's no correct way)Practice, practice, practice. Find a way you're comfortable with.It gets easier the more you practice !
I wish I had this patience to do such project with this small hook and yarn😭 someday it's gonna be mine, but not now, cus all I can do is 1/10 of the basic top in one time and then rest for few days😅
Can you help me? Whenever I crochet, I always have to pick up the yarn over the hook instead of it going off smoothly through like yours. I do have plastic ones, and you have metal so that might be the problem. Have any tips?
Try hold your yarn at an upwards angle using your middle finger. Using you hook try twisting from facing away from you to towards you. She also has a tutorial on how to single crochet including this stuff if you need a visual:) hope this helps!
What Sunset Sunflower said! I use a combo of pulling the working yarn up while rotating the front of the hook to point down. Aligning the hook to face the row allows it to slip more easily through the loops.
Mine slip out every once in a while, usually because pulling the tails up to the next row left a loop on the outside that was long enough to catch on someone's finger or a piece of furniture. You can make even more sure they don't come free by adding a trim or edging to your work. It'll also look awesome and stabilize the edges of your piece, so win-win!!
I've been trying to get the hang of this. But the yarn always slides on the needle, making it hard to hold on to. And the hook takes so much effort to go into the chain I've done.....im not sure what im doing wrong or what im supposed to do

Doesn’t it come undone when you wash it
oh sheee crocheting the tails into the rest like that is so smart, now i wont have to deal with loose yarn everywhere
Sameee
I struggle sm doing the tails so I just keep it till the end 😂
Just cut the tails shorter to a preferred length to make it easier to crochet over them
Yessss I've never seen it done like that!
i always tie a knot with the tails before weaving them in because i can’t deal with the 0.1% chance of my project unraveling- but i LOVE this method because it’s quick and easy :D
I feel you :D

@@delicias.p8405 Pretty Much
👍
@@delicias.p8405 yea! the double knot secures your tails and doesn’t interrupt them from being crocheted into the piece 👍🏽

Me to I love your videos
Ohhh thank you. I usually knot mine, this method seems easier, and still just as secure. ☺️
Definitely still knot it or it can come undone after washing or regular use
Omg I want to learn this looks so fun to create whatever you want.
This was the single best video to help me understand how to do it!! Thank you!
Omgosh thank you for the comment!

Love this! So happy my projects will look much sleeker!
I did it after finishing a row & couldn't figure out why the color wasn't lining up! Thank you!
I always just tie off make a loop with another color and go on! That also works! ❤
You got me absolutely obsessed with crocheting-😂
Be sure to tie your tails before weaving in! Look into how to do a forever knot. It's super simple and you don't have to worry about unraveling
❤❤❤❤❤ I love this! No threading in tails!!!
This will help me when I crochet thanks!!
This is the best thing ever.
Wow finally!!! I've always wandered ❤
"Give yourself some ✨️Liyue✨️"
Ahh yes, Genshin🕺🏽✨️

Thought the same thing 😂
LIFE CHANGING ima use this every time i crochet

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH, been looking for some tips like this cause i usually do switch colors just to add sime fun ❤
Omg thank you this was so helpful ☺️
GREAT TRICK. I will try this.
NO MORE weaving in tails. I love it.👍
TYSM I WAS LOOKING FOR ONE OF THESE!!!
I never knew how to crochet them in I'm go glad you showed us how
Thank you this really helped me 😊
i can use multiple colors into the chain, and it works WELL!

It could have to do with the kind of yarn you use
They get smoother after a bit of use
This makes so much more sense than any other video I have seen 😂
Thank you very much!! This saves me a lot of time
I love your videos you make my day so much better
That's so smart this whole time I was just tying the other color on. And your reminding me to get a crochet hook lol
Thanks for sharing. I was looking for this.
How do you change colors in a round?? It looks so odd when I do it! It is such a struggle for me!

Well it’s a good thing you showed me that because I didn’t know how to do that
Woooow!! 😮 Thanks!
This helped thank you Soo much
Always always always tuck your yarn tails into work when you can!! Nothing like finishing project and then having to go back and weave in yarn tail ends with darning needle. 😂
But you know it's the only secure way to do it, right😅😂❤
Can you please show us how to even start it btw love your vids😁
Look at the video before this
Ty
I do this but tie the 2 tails first to stop the stitch coming loose. But this is the easiest way to change yarns.
Woah. Will try that!
Love this thank you lol
I crochet my ends into the project like you but i have little fuzzy ends sticking out of the crochet when i reach the end of the ends 😅 I would appreciate some tips on how to get rid of them, thanks!
I normally cut them.
Thanks super helpful!
Thanks you so much it going to help me soooo much 😘😘😘
Thank goodness it's single crochet cuz I was doing single crochet😅But thank you so much❤
That was helpful, thank you
Thank you!!! Great video.
I would just weave in the ends with a needle like normal because over time with washing a project that will come undone learned that a long time ago
Thank you soooooo much this help me a lot love you soooo much ❤❤
Can you do double crochet because I'm making my mom a blanket and I have been using one loop
Bro it is like 2:14 am we all awake at this time we can make a Club when we talk to each other only at night

@@SadieTakenbybff yeah
Bety help full
I cant be the only one who just ties 🥲
That’s so smart to hide the tails like that, less time spent weaving ends in!!
I did exactly like this,,, and yup...it's look nice too
Thank you
I just can’t seem to hold the yarn correctly. I don’t know if it matters, but I do have pretty small hands.. I’ve been trying for awhile and I just can’t seem to get it right. What am I doing wrong?
Well everyone holds the yarn differently so you just need to try lots of different ways and see what works for you!!
Watch videos! Try a lot of ways because different people hold their yarns differently( there's no correct way)Practice, practice, practice. Find a way you're comfortable with.It gets easier the more you practice !

How to change the color while double crocheting
when i double crochet i do the same when theres 2 loops left on your hook and slip the color on
I don't have enough yarn to reach the end you have to do a video about that if that's possible
thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu
Do your tails ever come undone, or do they stay crocheted in?
I've never had them come out.
Mine slip out every once in a while, usually because pulling the tails up to the next row left a loop on the outside that was long enough to catch on someone's finger or a piece of furniture.
