How to Change Colors in Crochet

While it's possible to crochet beautiful projects in a single color, learning how to change colors in crochet opens up a world of possibilities for colorful creations.

Although it may seem intimidating at first, changing colors is a basic technique that all beginners should learn.

Learning the Basics of Changing Colors in Crochet

To start, crochet a few rows in Color A before switching to Color B. When you reach the last stitch of the row, grab Color B with your hook and pull up a loop.

If you plan on using Color A again, leave it attached and carry it up the sides. Otherwise, cut the yarn and weave in the ends later.
