How to crochet with multiple colours

Keywords: stripes,

In this DROPS video we show how to crochet with multiple colours.

The principle when crocheting with multiple colors is to use a separate ball for each color field. In the last stitch of a color wait with last pull through and pull through with next color. It is important to plan the next row when you are working a row, so that you bring the thread to where it will be used on the next row.
I.e in this video the pink will be used from the start of the next row, so when you are finished with the pink color on this row and you continue green, you crochet around the pink yarn so that you bring it to the edge. When changing colors also make sure to twist the strands, and tighten, to avoid holes between colors.

You must read the pattern to be able to follow. You’ll find patterns where this technique is used by clicking on the pictures below.

The video above can be used in the following patterns

Dear Roberto, DROPS yarns are not very comfortable to use with these kind of tools, since you'd need to use a specific ball shape for them and DROPS yarns don't usually have that shape.
