Crochet tutorial: Weaving in ends

You’ve done it! You learned to crochet, made a piece, and even finished it off!

But now what do you do with all of these ends sticking out?

To weave in your ends, you have a few options:

  1. You can just crochet over them. This isn’t the most secure option — the ends might pop back out after wash — but it is the fastest and easiest!
  2. Use you hook to weave the ends through your stitches. Make sure to go one direction and then turn back over in the opposite direction to reduce the possibility that the ends pop back out.
  3. Thread your yarn end into a darning needle and weave through the fibers of your yarn. Make sure to go one direction and then turn back over in the opposite direction to reduce the possibility that the ends pop back out.
  4. Use a latch hook! Again, make sure to go one direction and then turn back over in the opposite direction to reduce the possibility that the ends pop back out.

I demonstrate 1-3 in the video below.
