How to do Intarsia Tapestry Crochet: Make Both Sides Clean

Hello beautiful people!
I know it has been a while since I posted, I have been very active on TikTok and IG (We've reached 15K yaaay) and thus I unintentionally neglected youtube. BUT I WILL try to post more here! I appreciate you all so much.

For this video I'm showing you how to do intarsia tapestry crochet, how to start it, how to switch colours and how to read a graph. I am using Stitchfiddle for this graph but there are endless graphs all over the internet e.g Pinterest, Braceletbook (where i found the Penny Proud graph), where you can use this exact same method. Let me know what you want to see next!!

The holy grail of knowledge, ive never even done color switching crochet and now im inspired to start, im so happy!

Very unconventional tutorial but it was way easier to understand then some of the biggest crochet channels on YouTube. I tried following a master crocheter & I was totally lost . You explained it and showed how with ease.

It's so easy the way that You've explained it. This is the first time that I've understood how this is done, thanks to You. You're such a good instructor.

The beginning stressed me out. Once you made it to the 2nd or 3rd row, it was very relaxing to watch. I think that I MIGHT 😂try this. The pattern would have to be super simple with 2 colors. Maybe I'll branch out. Thanks for introducing me to this.🤗

I started a tapestry/graphgan and by the time I got to the “wrong side” I had no idea what to do. Your video helped me hide the working strands onto the back! Thank you

Idk if you know this and just don’t prefer it but on stitch fiddle you can have the “written instructions” along with the progress tracker so you don’t have to count it by yourself. I like the color blocks bc it’s visual but they also have it just in words.
Anyway loved learning this technique you made it so easy to understand <3

YOU'RE A WITCH 🎉

Your video is so beginner friendly 😁 I wish I would have had your tutorial when I started out. I had to figure it all by myself 😂😂

[el-xbry]

man ive been seeing you on tiktok for months and ive been so intimidated to even try what you do as an avid amigurumi maker. i FINALLY was deciding to step out of my comfort zone and see what mosaic crochet is like and this video happened to pop up. immediately recognized the sweater and figured id give a quick look. ive never had someone explain this better dude. truly a godsend and i will not be making tapestries for hours

[kameyutsamsiyu]

Excellent tutorial! I really liked how you explained the basics of what makes a piece suitable for intarsia crochet, as well as what to look for when you need to temporarily switch to fair isle crochet. I was confused about that before.

thank you for having the guts and courage to post this to us all. this made me realize that i was not far off from the crocheting truth that i had the right idea and i had started that exact technique and half way through i stopped for two reasons, no three reason. First was the tangled mess, second was, ran out of extra of the same colors to attach different locations, and doubted myself since i had not seen the technique i was using before and thought that i was venturing out where other crocheters have been to never return alive with that technique because it was found to not work thus why i never seen anyone use that technique before to find out YES MANY DO but just never show it. Thank you for doing this! I just may attempt this once more.

This is just magic! The Proud Family was one of my daughters favorites when she was younger. Just amazing.

[chantalbrown]

The first video where i can actually understand colour switch thanks lol

This video is incredibly helpful. I went into tapestry thinking it was hard but I watched this video and completed my first tapestry and it looks amazing !! Thank you 💖💖🥹😊

[heloisavillela]

Thank you for your video! I’ve been trying to get the courage to do intarsia tapestry for a while, and this video has been the kick I needed to finally try it out.

[donk]

you’re very good at explaining tysm for this! by far the best tutorial i’ve found so far

[patiencevetre]

@crochetcrys_ I lost count of how many tutorials on this technique and every single one had me confused and made me not even want to try. I then found your video and all I can say is Thank you so much! I watched the whole thing. You broke it down and made it look so easy I finally feel like I can do it too. Your the best

[nickirichards]

This was the video that FINALLY made colourwork crochet click for me!! Thank you so much 😄❤

[Melisusy]

You are an amazing teacher. Please if you can, make intarsia crochet tutorials where we can crochet along with you. I feel like I've searched high and low and there are barely tutorials for this type of technique.
