Make a chain stripe in your knitting - this tutorial was made to show the embellishment option for the arctic habitat of the Adventure Knitting 3 collection, but it can be done on any knit fabric with stripes of eyelet holes, or on a loose-gauge knit fabric (so the fabric is open enough to stick the crochet hook right through the stitches).

pull contrasting color yarn through eyelet hole, from the front/right side, sticking hook through to back/wrong side, pulling yarn loop to front (tail and working yarn hanging out back) |

with yarn loop on hook, stick hook through the next eyelet hole up and grab contrasting yarn, pulling it through that hole, then continue pulling new loop, through first loop |

repeat the last step, pulling yarn through next hole up, then through loop, up the stripe of eyelet holes for as long as you want your stripe |

when you're finished, break contrasting yarn in back, then work the step normally, but continue pulling it once it's through the previous loop, all the way through |
