Ik laat deze video altijd aan mijn cursisten zien, omdat zij in het begin nog erg bezig zijn met "de juiste manier". Waarop ik blijf hameren: 'Er is géén juiste manier. Er zijn alleen manieren.' Deze video helpt daar erg bij. Bedankt 😊Kim Kruit Crea
In less than 5 minutes you made something I thought was gonna be super hard seem MUCH less daunting!!! Thank you so so so so much, I can't wait to finish my sweater now 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰.
You can also weave in ends as you go if you lay the tail over the stitches you’re a working into like she did in the video when she was moving the colour over
Thank you so much!! I’ve been trying to make halloween wall hangings for the past few days, and there have been many tears of frustration because you could see the colors under the stitches. This is so helpful!!
I'm a knitter and wanted to try crocheting. I'm good at knitting sith colorwork, but crocheting with colorwork->🥴. This video was well done! As a not-so-patient it was amazing you went straight to the point and didn't explain some dumb shi-. Thanks!
I love working with bobbins! I made a throw that had over a dozen changes in some rows. To keep them in order, I pre measured what I needed for that block, wound it up, and pinned it to where it would be picked up in the next row.
@@julielacombcooks496 I counted the stitches! Then I measured out how much yarn I used for two stitches, and added a bit extra to weave in and a bit more just in case.
@@julielacombcooks496 I didn’t cut the yarn each row, but measured out how much I would need of that colour for the whole section, changed colour when I needed, pinned it in place with a stitch marker, and picked it up again when I got to it the next row. This video helped a lot! ua-cam.com/video/gaNqt6TIkHo/v-deo.html
This was so helpful!!! I started an alpha pattern with 3 colors and was weaving in all 3 into my single stitch… let’s just say it doesn’t look great 😂 I’ve got to start over but now I understand!
This was so helpful I have been afraid to do graph work because of not knowing what to do with the yarn to keep from getting a crap ton of ends to weave in or carry colors under other colors and it be seen! This is brilliant! Thank you!
Yep! I figured. I’m making a cow blanket, putting spots here and there and I did think I would need different skins of black so I don’t have to carry the black yarn…thank you.
OMGG TYSSMMM!! i have been crocheting for almost 6 years now and i dont think i ever trıed crocheting any pattern on my work cuz i didnt know how to change colours neatly (like i just know how to change once or twice but changing many times was a nightmare to me) but this video makes everything clear and i love how u showed many cases we would face when following a pattern. JUST THANK YOU! 💜💜💜💜
I have plans to make a nightmare before Christmas grapghan for my friends birthday. Thanks for the tutorial as I was really struggling with colour changes.
This video is so helpful! ❤ I needed to figure out how to crochet like this without all the yarns in the back. I don't mind it on my cross stitch projects or if I was crocheting a tapestry which would hide the back. But I wanted to make a blanket! The 1st two channels weren't helpful there, 3rd time's the charm. 🍀 I've been binge-ing your graphagan videos.
HOW WONDERFUL! I KNOW GRAPH CROCHET IS GOING TO BE MUCH EASIER THAN C2C! SO As I understand graph Crochet, I'll just need to be more aware of my yarn getting tangled as I add different colors and maybe more patience will be in order. I'm going to be following you here on UA-cam and I'll see for other places you may be showing your finished creations and patterns! Take care!
Came back to say thank you for the tutorial on intarsia. I tried someone else's and they showed yarn hopping over or under the hook depending on what you were doing. It didn't work out for me so I tried this and my Minecraft Creeper Scarf 🧣 looks fabulous! My son will be happy! Thank you again! ♥️
I’ve been crocheting for 13 years and never thought about bringing the yarn to the front 🤔. Thanks for the tip! Also what kind of yarn is that? It looks awesome
Happy to hear it's coming in handy for your project! It's not something I came up with, there are tons of ways to do colorwork/color changes and this is my favorite.
Single or half double work fine. Just bear in mind that half double crochets are slightly taller and singles are slightly shorter which can effect how to colorwork looks.
thank you, very helpful video. i have a question about the last color change you did where you added the bobbin. how do you know when to carry the yarn and when to use a bobbin? I feel like we carried the orange yarn a lot more than the green. is that because green is a darker color and more visible, so we never want to carry the green? but always carry the orange? or am I missing something?
You only carry yarn if it can be hidden by stitches which are the same color. Either by carrying it along the top of stitches which are the same color (like at (05:00) or by crocheting over it with yarn that it the same color (like at 03:15). If you look at the point where I added the second green bobbin there was no way for me to carry the the first green yarn across without it passing through a block of orange. I hope that makes sense!
I pick one side to weave them all in and make sure to only weave the end under sections of the same colour. Make sure to weave them back and forth at least three times to secure them.
Hello, thank you for the tutorial. I've watched a few videos regarding color change. Some keep the yarn on the wrong side only. I notice you put yours in the front of the work...regardless if it's the wrong or right side of the work. Which one is easier and looks better? I'm curious 😊😊 thank you
I'm new to graphgans and just like me, I've done a big no no in crochet world. I'm fairly new to crocheting the right way. I normally design my own projects (I luv to call them bc there's no set pattern) bc I don't know really how to read patterns. I've taught myself how to crochet by watching youtube (Thks to my older 2 kids). I've only been crocheting for 10yrs. I'm very new to graphgans. I'm starting also a tiger graphgan. The question I have is, is it best to start from the bottom to top or top to bottom? I've printed the picture & also in graph form. I decided to start from top bc that's what I'm use to doing. Actually it's a redo bc mice chewed holes in the huge blanket I made my mom-in-law the 1st yr I was learning to crochet. To be honest, I went a lot crazy crocheting all sorts of blankets, totes, purses, monkeys lol. Yep and none correctly crocheted haha. So, I've undone everything and washed the yarn & got it ready to start a new blanket. Thks for all advices and anything helpful

Moving non working yarn to the front makes so much sense!! Thank you so much 😊

How do you premeasure? Do u put pieces that fit for each row?

Thank you.
Hey! Thank you for this video. It was much needed. Could you also make a tutorial on crochet how to make lirika matoshi cloud sweater?
Thank you
This is super helpful! Do you have any tips for how to pre-plan for where you will need bobbins?
I love your video.do you always bring your yarn to the front when you use double crochet? I am in the United states.
Thank you! Yes, I always bring the yarn to the front when changing colour, this works for single, half double and double crochet.
What yarn brand and size did you use? Sooo vibrant and beautiful
This is so genius!!! Totally saving my project!!!! Question: Is this standard info in the crochet world or is this something you came up with!?
Happy to hear it's coming in handy for your project! It's not something I came up with, there are tons of ways to do colorwork/color changes and this is my favorite.

Single or half double work fine. Just bear in mind that half double crochets are slightly taller and singles are slightly shorter which can effect how to colorwork looks.
@@WillowCrochet thank you for you answer! I might try both to test it😊
