Maybe you ran out of yarn and need to start a new skein, or maybe your pattern called for different
colors or textures of yarn to be worked at different intervals.  Either way, the technique for joining a
new skein of yarn is the same.
Work the last stitch up to the last step, leaving two loops on
the hook.
Pull the new yarn through the two loops to complete the last
stitch.
Continue with the new yarn to work the next stitch and each
stitch thereafter.
When changing yarns for color patterns, do not cut any yarns that will be used again later in the
pattern.  Instead, let the thread “float” up the wrong side of the work and rejoin it as needed.
