Two-Color Spiral in DC | Video Tutorial
The two-color spiral in double crochet is a fun way to create a peppermint candy or a spooky spiral in a flat circle. It is more simple than it seems and can be mastered quickly. This version of the spiral is done in only double crochet.
Two-Color Spiral DC: Step By Step
- Ch 4 with first color, 5 dc into 4th chain from hook. (6 dc, including ch-3)
- Do not cut yarn. Drop yarn with a large loop and sl st with second color in same ch as first 6 dc. Ch 3, 5 dc in same sp. (6 dc, including ch-3)
- Without joining, 2 dc in top of ch-3, 2 dc in next 5 sts. Drop second color, pick up first color. 2 dc in top of ch-3, 2 dc in next 5 sts. (24 dc)
- Continue in this pattern, working 6 increase in each color for each round. Each round will increase in factors of 12.

Kati is a crochet pattern designer, dragon obsessive, and certified geek who has been turning yarn into fantasy creatures since 2016. Her patterns lean heavily toward dragons, fantasy beasts, and whatever her brain decides is a good idea at 2am. She is proudly anti-AI crochet and very pro-finishing-your-WIPs (she’s working on it). When she’s not crocheting something with too many horns, she’s probably watching something nerdy or playing dog agility with her two American Hairless Terriers. Want to work together or just say hi?

Even though the picture tutorial is pretty clear, I like to watch the videos because they are so clear and helpful, but I am not seeing a video link for this. Just thought I’d let you know!
