The Gauge Swatch

Chain 10 and double crochet across for 7 rows. This should measure 4 inches by 4 inches. If you don’t get gauge, try upsizing or downsizing your hook. Everyone’s tension is different, and some yarns are different too.

Color Changes

To switch from one color to another drop the yarn that is in the hand that is not holding the crochet hook and pick up the other color that you want to use. Next, grab the yarn with the crochet hook with the hand that is holding the crochet hook and begin to double crochet with that yarn color. Be sure to cut a 5 inch tail each time you stop crocheting with a color. The ends can be weaved in at the end of your project.
