2 Ways to Change Color for Crochet Plushies: An Amigurumi Tutorial on How to Change Color

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I'm so so sorry about the horrendous audio quality in this video. I tried out a new microphone and it ended up making the audio worse. I'll probably remake this video sometime in the future.
Here are two ways to change color for your amigurumi plushie:
1. The first method is a good way to add patterns or detailing to your plushie. 0:33
2. The second method is a great way to create seamless stripes that extend all the way around the entire plushie. 2:02
Materials Used in this Video:
-2 colors of Red Heart #4 Worsted Weight Yarn
-3.5 mm hook
-fabric scissors
You can find some of these on my amazon storefront! These are my personal favorite materials to use! www.amazon.com/shop/influence...

    but if I'm doing a split color project, do i have to skip every first stitch in the rest of the rounds after the color change?

    so this is for continuous rounds or joined?

    Can you show how you changed the color back to yellow for the second method?

    It's the same thing as the color change to the black but you would just switch the colors! :) If you are trying to color change again immediately after the first row of color change, you would combine the beginning and the end of the changing color method. So yarn over the last half of the single crochet of the black row with the yellow and skip the first stitch (the slip stitch from the previous round), and go into that second stitch of black to do a slip stitch and chain with the yellow.

    if I’m trying to change the color just for a single stich then go back to the other color, how am I supposed to do that??

    You’ll use the first method and just change colors twice in a row.

    @@dis1jan are you starting the color change in the stitch before the one where you want to see the color change? Since you’re doing two in a row, you wouldn’t complete a full single crochet in the second color. You’ll need to again switch the color before you yarn over the second time like what I did at 0:47 for the first color change
