For others in the comments, here are my interpretation/rewording of the instructions below that I wrote for my own use, plus me trying out different ways to follow them and the outcomes. Note that she uses a "turning chain" which is just chaining 1 at the start of each round, then slip stitching into that chain at the end of the round - this is more common in other projects that aren't amigurumi. 1 method - do a round of slip stitches in new color 2nd method - on the start of the last round of the old color, ch1 in the new color. Insert into next stitch, yarn under with the old color loop. Pull up a loop in the new color (3 strands of yarn on hook: new color, old color, new color) At the end of the round, join to the ch1 with a slip stitch. The second method isn't as complicated as it looks once you get started. You can put both strands of yarn on your tension finger and just pull up whichever loop you need, alternating. For the second method, I thought it looked a little cleaner when the next round works in the front loops only (FLO), but that does create a little bulge on the piece. The 1st method wans't perfect because, when you work into those slip stitches, you're going to reveal some of the old color underneath - there won't be a perfect horizontal line across like it seems at first. It also didn't lay as flat as I liked. I managed to solve this by doing TWO rows of slip stitches in the new color. Then, when it was time to work into the stitches with regular single crochet, I crochened into the FIRST row of slip stitches. Bam, a pretty horizontal line! It lays flatter too, imo. I'll have to keep experimenting though to see which of these methods avoids the visible color change jank.

I was having the same prblm with the first method.. the old clrs were still showing and it wasn't smooth like shown in the video.. and then I thought maybe someone in the cmnt section mentioned that so when I saw your cmnt I tried to do the two rows of slip stitches but maybe I was working with a thin yarn it was really difficult for me to start the next round so what I did was I worked in the back loops (BLO) of the first row of ss and it went really smoothly.. it was a perfect line no other clrs were showing.. hope it helps anyone having the same issue..🤍

The two rows of slip stitch method definitely does not work for me. Ended up having a weird inwards dent no matter how loosely I tried to do the slst. I've frogged and redone it 3 times now with the same outcome. I give up. 😭

I'm a beginner in crochet, this is very useful tips and your explanation is very clear 👍🏼. May I know how do you do it with half double crochet and double crochet? Can u teach how to do seamless stitch for SC, HDC and DC joining (slip stitch). I'm not sure what I did wrong, my SC joining turn out slanted and looks ugly. 🙏🏼 New subscriber here 👋🏼

Excelente vídeo, me salvou aqui!! Por favor, ficou uma dúvida: na aplicação do ilhós, a posição correta da arruela é com a parte côncava para cima? Eu enxerguei assim, mas na narração foi falado que era com o "relevinho para cima", o que me deixou na dúvida... Obrigada!!
