Hello. I have question. How do I keep going with the same color if I'm not changing colors on each round? Thank you.

you can do it two ways, fasten off and add the same color into the chain 1 space, or you can keep going after you sl st into the ch 3, you can slip stitch into the chain 2 space, and crochet 3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc to create the corner.
