      Tapestry Crochet Basics

      Tapestry crochet is a wonderful technique that will allow you to add colorwork to your projects. One or more strands of yarn are carried and wrapped in the stitches of the working color. Then, colors are switched by following a pattern to make a specific design. There are no floats on the wrong side of the work, and you make a stronger weave.

      Depending on the piece you are making, you will crochet one or more foundation rows or rounds without carrying any alternate color and then move on to the tapestry portion of the project.

      There are several ways to work with this technique, and in this book we will cover 3 variations:

      - Tapestry crochet with single crochet worked in rows

      - Tapestry crochet with back loop single crochet worked in the round

      - Tapestry crochet with back loop double crochet worked in the round

      Basic Steps to Carry & Wrap the Additional Yarn

      Tapestry crochet with single crochet worked in rows

      After the foundation row, start the first row of the tapestry pattern. Chain 1 and start the first single crochet: Insert the hook in the stitch, yarn over and pull through the stitch (see photo 1),

      Photo 1

      leaving a 4-inch tail, place the new color in between your hook and the working yarn (see photo 2),

      Photo 2

      yarn over with the working yarn and close the first single crochet (see photos 3 and 4).

      Photo 3

      Photo 4

      Your alternate color is now wrapped in the first single crochet.

      To continue, insert your hook in the next stitch, working under the alternate color (see photo 5), and complete the single crochet with the strand wrapped again (see photo 6). Repeat for each single crochet across.

      Tapestry crochet with back loop single crochet worked in the round

      After the foundation round or rounds, start the first round of the tapestry pattern. Begin the first single crochet as follows: Chain 1, insert the hook in the back loop of the same stitch as the join, yarn over and pull up a loop (see photo 7),

      leaving a 4-inch tail, place the new color between your hook and the working yarn (see photo 8),

      yarn over with the working yarn (see photo 9) and close the first back loop single crochet (see photo 10). Your alternate color is now wrapped in the first back loop single crochet.
