Why I select tapestry crochet method to make this beanie?

The tapestry crochet creates a beautiful color work in crochet.
It can be worked in rounds and carry unworked yarn through the stitches so it cannot see in both right side and wrong side.
Tapestry crochet can be worked in different stitches like hdc, sc. This beanie worked with single crochet.

How to change color?

just work single crochet stitches in back loop until there are only 2 loops left on the hook (image 1). Grab the new colored yarn and pull through the 2 loops (image 2), work the next single crochet with new colored yarn just joined (image 3), over the unworked yarn (image 4), when you need to change color again, drop the working yarn when there are 2 loops on the hook and grab again other colored yarn (image 5 & 6).
