How to crochet a blanket with two colors without Afghan stitch?

... Or having to weave in any color to change? I plan on doing intarsia, but I wanted to see if there is anything I should know before I start. For example, because my pattern is a blue circle in the center of the black, I have two hanging balls of black why on both sides I do not have long strings of black yarn to the circle in the back of the work. And I also do not want the method that carries both yarns do - too much yarn would be wasted.

When you are ready to change color, only be sure to twist or cross over the old color with the new color of yarn to make sure you do not end with holes where they should not be considered. Your balls of yarn get caught a little bit, but there are tricks you can use to keep them from tangling. Some people use empty clean liter soda bottles, cut the bottom and run the wire through the neck. I only take a few minutes as is necessary to untangle the mess
