Supplies:

Pro Tips:
1. On color changes, make sure your dropped color goes to the wrong side. For even-numbered rows, drop the yarn to the back as you work. For odd-numbered rows, pull the dropped yarn to the front as you work.
2. Watch your tension carefully to avoid working too tightly. Keep your stitches even.
3. Stretch your work as you go to easily work your stitches and prevent curling.
Color Change Tip:
How to DC with a color change:
• Work a DC as normal until you have two loops remaining on your hook. Drop your working yarn, pick up the next color, and pull through the last two loops to complete the stitch.
How this looks:
Color 1: Yarn Over,
Pull up a loop, yarn over, pull through 2 loops,
drop color 1, yarn over with color 2, pull through 2 loops.
Repeat next stitch with color 2.
