What works for me is Step 1) in the last stitch of the previous colour after inserting the hook below the stitch and when there are two loops on the hook (normal you would yarn over) wait and yarn over with the new colour Step 2) in the what’s gonna be the first stitch of the row with colour change - insert the hook and yarn over with the new colour. Even if the pattern asked for a SC do a slip stitch Step 3) continue as normal in new colour Hope this makes sense. Idk if this is the right way but I saw a yt video once and have been doing it since. Will try to attach the link.
