Joining crochet yarn

Thanks MiniMoon I like the look of the twist method

I usually use this method. I was taught to do it when I first learnt to crochet.

I prefer to join a new ball of yarn at the start of a row rather than mid-point, the tails can then be worked into the edge rather than having a knot or a join that might detract from the pattern. I know it sometimes means wasting a few inches of yarn but I do prefer the finish that it achieved.

Yes, me too.

I meant when crocheting a square, which I suppose is the start of a round.

Thankyou

If it's a colour change on a corner I tie it on then cover the knot, then weave the ends in to make sure.

I'l watch that, it's probably a clever way of doing it.

At the moment I make a stitch or two with the yarn double then weave the ends in, back and forth two or three times.

I do that too

There is something call a Magic Knot but I've never tried it and I'm not sure I'd trust it even though it's recommended by many online crochet teachers.
