YES, it creates more ends to weave in, but it also creates a more seamless color change and a prettier overall finished effect. Don’t carry the yarn too farĭon’t shoot the messenger here but I have found that if I “carry” my yarn too many blocks away, it creates a sloppier/more puckered look than when I clip and reattach my yarn. ![]() See exactly what I mean in the video below. I know I am going against my own cardinal rule of changing colors here, but when crocheting a corner to corner I change colors with the slip stitch instead of in the last pull-through as normal.

I always use the chain 5 and 2 respectively, it helps to keep the holes in between blocks smaller which in turn helps to keep the color changes less conspicuous. Depending on which method you choose, you’ll then either chain 2 to start each new block in that row or chain 3. When crocheting a corner to corner afghan, you can either chain 5 to start a new row OR you can chain 6. Use the 5:2 chain ratio for Corner to Corner (c2c)
