How to finish crocheting and weave in ends

Before you begin weaving in ends, make sure you have all the necessary materials at hand:

Your finished crocheted project

Crochet hook

Picture Instructions:

Cut the yarn from the skein

After you have completed your crochet project. Cut the yarn from the skein, leaving about 6 inches to weave in.

Use your crochet hook

Using your crochet hook, yarn over and pull the yarn tail trough the loop creating a knot.

The last knot

Pull gently on the yarn to tighten up the last knot in your project. The yarn tail will be left out.

In this project we just have two ends to weave in. The yarn tail from the beginning of the project and the yarn tail from the end of the project.

Now its time to gather your yarn needle for the next steps.
