Crochet: Changing Colors or Adding New Yarn

From my site, Unique-Homemade-Gifts.com: Learn the crochet basics of how to attach a new color of yarn to your project, or how to start a new piece of yarn. This technique applies no matter what kind of crochet stitch you are doing. This example shows you in the single crochet stitch. (There is no sound on this video.)

You can read more about this stitch on my site.

Thanks, I've been looking for a video that shows how to add yarn to a single crochet stitch.

@RedNixie0705 I'm glad I was able to help. :0)  You can use this technique to add/change yarn with any stitch, not just single crochet. Have fun with your next project! :0)

Finally, someone who shows me what to do with the tail, instead of just saying, "just sew it back in when you're done"...thank you!

Thank you! I've watched about 5 fancy, big production, videos that didn't explain it a fraction as well as you did - just by sitting silently in front of the camera for less than a minute, LOL.
