Fixing the Joining Color on the Gingerbread Biscuit Arm

Crocheting can sometimes result in mistakes, such as using the wrong color on a joining point. If you find yourself in this situation, don't worry, it can be easily fixed. First, undo the arm to the point where the color change occurs. Once undone, change the color on the inside so that it is not visible when joined back together. Rejoin the arm to the body by single crocheting through the arm and into the body. Repeat this process four times to ensure a secure attachment. Finish the round by single crocheting into each stitch until you reach the stitch mark.

Rejoining the Arm

To reattach the arm with the body of the gingerbread biscuit, single crochet around the arm. Start by inserting the hook into the stitch where the arm is joined to the body, and single crochet all the way around the arm. Skip the four stitches where the arm was initially joined to the body. Continue single crocheting until you reach the point where the arm meets the other side.

Single Crocheting around the Arm

Next, single crochet around the arm by inserting the hook into the stitches around the arm. Skip the four stitches where the arm is joined with the body. Single crochet into each stitch until you reach the end of the arm. The result should be a neat and tidy join that is not visible.

Continuing the Single Crochet around the Other Arm

Repeat the process of single crocheting around the other arm. Skip the four stitches where the arm is joined to the body and single crochet into each stitch around the arm. This ensures a consistent look and a secure attachment of the arm.

Single Crocheting Around the Arm

Continue single crocheting around the arm, skipping the four joining stitches. Single crochet into each stitch until you reach the end of the arm. This step helps maintain the symmetry of the gingerbread biscuit.

Completing the Round and Joining with the Body

To complete the round, single crochet into the remaining stitches until you reach the stitch mark. Ensure that you skip the joining stitch where the arm is attached to the body. This ensures a clean and uniform finish to the round.

Single Crocheting to the Stitch Mark

Single crochet into each stitch until you reach the stitch mark. This step adds stability and completes the round. Pay attention to skip the joining stitch where the arm is attached to the body.

Rounds 14 and 15: Single Crochet in Each Stitch

For rounds 14 and 15, continue with one single crochet in each stitch around. This pattern creates a consistent texture and shape for the gingerbread biscuit.

Round 16: Single Crochet and Invisible Decrease

In round 16, start with one single crochet into the next 11 stitches. Follow this with two invisible decreases, which involve crocheting only through the front loop. This technique creates a decrease in stitches without leaving a visible seam. Complete the round with 15 single crochets.

Round 17: Single Crochet in Each Stitch

Round 17 consists of single crocheting into each stitch around. This pattern maintains the shape and structure of the gingerbread biscuit. Complete the round, and your project is now ready to move on to the next step.
