How To Change Color In Treble Crochet

Hey everyone, it's Deja from CrochetEverAfter.com. Today we're gonna change color when we're working in treble crochet. So I have lots of color changing in a lot of my other tutorials, but nothing that's specific to each stitch. So that's why I'm adding these in. So this one's gonna be treble. They're all basically the same. You're going to work to the last step of your stitch and then you're going to change your color. So for this example, we have one, two, three, four, five stitches. So we're pretending that we're working six stitches in our blue color and then we want to switch to our new color for the seventh stitch. So I say six because we're going to work our final stitch up to the last step. So I yarn over twice, then I insert my hook into the next stitch, Pull up a loop. Work off one set of two, work off two set of two, and then I have one more two loops left on my hook. That's the very last step of my treble. If it was a normal, just regular treble, I would just yarn over and pull through the last two to finish the stitch. But now we're going to change color. So what we'll do is we'll grab our new color. We have our short tail long enough to weave in but not super long. We're going to lay it over our hook and I kind of just grab onto it with my fingers and then pull it through those last two loops on your hook. And you'll see those last two loops become part of the treble. We have this loop which becomes the top of the stitch and this loop that becomes this very last crossover stitch of our treble. Then we can just drop the tail of the purple and start making our next stitch in the next So again, we're going to do a treble and you'll see, we just pull, you'll see they're kind of a little bit out of whack here, we just need to pull on our tails, once we weave those in they'll be all in line with the rest of our stitches, but you can see that our color change is very nice and clean. So we have one blue stitch up top and one purple stitch up top, so it's very simple for these color changes. Let me show you one more time. So we work up to our last two loops on our hook. That's kind of how it goes for every single stitch, except for half double because the last step of a half double, there's three loops on your hook. But every other stitch, work up until you have two loops on your stitch, bring your new yarn in, pull it through, and then you can go ahead and start your next stitch. So this can be used whether it's rows or rounds, does not matter. And that's how you do your color change. So if you have any questions, leave them below and thank you for watching.
