Finish your round with a new color by changing to another color during the final step of the last stitch in the previous color. Here’s how: complete the last stitch in the previous color until only the last two loops remain on the hook. Then, using the new color, wrap the yarn around the hook (see photo 1) and pull it through the two remaining loops of the previous color on your hook (see photo 2). The next stitch you make will be the first stitch in the new color. Secure your yarn.
Begin a new round with a slip stitch into the back loop only. To do this, insert your hook into the back loop of the first stitch (see photo 3) and pull up a loop with the new color. Then, pull this loop through the loop on your hook to complete the slip stitch (see photo 4).
Continue as normal in the new color until you reach the first stitch (see photo 5). Now you will work your last stitch through the front loop of the previous color and the front loop of the new color (see photo 6).
Afterward, you can proceed with your crochet work as usual, and you’ll find that it’s extremely difficult to spot where the color transitions take place.
