Basically you want to hold your new contrasting color (CC) of yarn the same way you would your main color (MC) of working yarn and work your pattern with it. It might help to work the tail of the yarn with the working part of the yarn for a few stitches to secure the end so it isn&rsquo;t too loose as you continue in your pattern.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_764\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-764\" style=\"width: 620px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newstitchaday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/NSAD-Change-Yarn-Color.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/newstitchaday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/NSAD-Change-Yarn-Color.jpg\" alt=\"Example of basic colorwork stripes\" title=\"NSAD-Change Yarn Color\" width=\"620\" class=\"size-full wp-image-764\" srcset=\"https:\/\/newstitchaday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/NSAD-Change-Yarn-Color.jpg 640w, https:\/\/newstitchaday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/NSAD-Change-Yarn-Color-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/newstitchaday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/NSAD-Change-Yarn-Color-150x84.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/newstitchaday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/NSAD-Change-Yarn-Color.jpg\"><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-764\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Example of basic colorwork stripes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/newstitchaday\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/newstitchaday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/youtube-subscribe-button.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"New Stitch A Day on You Tube\" width=\"330\" height=\"102\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/newstitchaday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/youtube-subscribe-button.jpg\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/new-stitch-a-day\/id417065366\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/newstitchaday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/itunes_audio-e1320875360465.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"New Stitch A Day Podcast on iTunes\" width=\"300\" height=\"102\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/newstitchaday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/11\/itunes_audio-e1320875360465.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n[sidebar alias=&rdquo;after-post&rdquo; ]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This video will help you learn how to add a new color of yarn when knitting.
