Bonjour Mme De Sainte Maréville, rentez les fils exactement de la même façon en restant dans la couleur de la rayure correspondant au fil à rentrer. Bon tricot!

Crochet tip for fastening strands

In this DROPS video we show how to avoid sewing many strands after colour change. Work the first 2 stitches at beginning of every row with new colour with double yarn (same colour). Then place yarn end along stitches from previous row and work around it so that the yarn end is hidden inside the stitches. In addition should the yarn end left at the end of row also be placed along the stitches when turning the piece to work around this yarn end as well. The way the strands are fastened without using a needle. We use the yarn DROPS Snow in the video. You must read the pattern to be able to follow this video properly.

How to weave in cotton tails

In this DROPS video we show how you can weave in tails on your crochet or knitted project. When using a cotton yarn, especially when it's thicker, it can be tricky. The tails will show and also may come out again when washing and wearing. A great trick is to split the strand into multiple thinner strands and then sew these thinner strands away in different directions. This usually comes out invisible and will not come undone.

How to weave in ends when working a new colour in the round

In this DROPS video we show how you can weave in ends on your work. When knitting with multiple colors or when just changing from one to another color, you can weave in the end as you continue with the new color. When you start the new color you want to make sure to twist the loose end around your previous color to avoid a hole, then place the working yarn behind the tail, and pick up the yarn alternating above and under the tail end to weave it in. Weave for about 4-6 sts and then you can cut the remaining tail. This way you don't have to fasten the threads at the end. You must read the pattern to be able to follow.
