Crochet Hanger Tutorial

Materials Needed:

A plain hanger
Yarn of different colors (mentioned are Charisma yarn from Loops & Threads, and a fleece yarn from Yarnspirations)
A crochet hook (5 mm is used in the video)

Step-by-Step Guide:

Starting Off:

Choose the starting end of your yarn. (The video suggests starting with a thicker yarn for ease of demonstration.)
Position the end of the yarn towards the direction you won't be working towards first to keep it out of the way.
Hold the yarn in place on the hanger, where you plan to start wrapping.

Making the Initial Loop:

Fold the yarn over itself to make a loop.
Using the crochet hook, pull this loop through another loop around the hanger. This creates your initial attachment to the hanger.
Secure the first loop by pulling the yarn tight but not too tight, allowing some flexibility for further wrapping.

Continuing the Wrap:

Continue with the slip stitch method by going under the hanger with your hook, grabbing the yarn, and pulling it through to create loops along the hanger.
Keep wrapping the yarn around the hanger, pulling each new loop through the previous one. Ensure not to tangle the yarn as you work.

Changing Colors:

When ready to change yarn colors, prepare the new yarn by placing the majority of it towards the direction you'll be working.
Cut the old yarn (if necessary) ensuring enough tail is left to secure it.
Introduce the new color by making a loop with it and continuing the wrapping process in the same slip stitch method as before.

Finishing the Wrap:

Continue adding colors as desired, repeating the process for each color change.
Once you reach the end of the hanger or your desired stopping point, cut the yarn, leaving a small tail to weave in or secure with a knot.

Neatening the Final Product:

If you have any loose ends or yarn that stands out, gently tug the surrounding loops to tighten them.
Adjust any uneven areas to smooth out the final look.
