weaving in ends

21

Noooo, I don’t slow down BUT may stick it somewhere and delay weaving in ends for a year or two.
I weave my ends in with a sharp needle. In the back of project I split the yarn with the needle while weaving and always zig zag the weaving yarn 3 x.
I’ve washed my stuff and nothing has unraveled doing this.
But, starting to do the magic knot to join yarns so I don’t have to WEAVE! Ugh!

This is how I weave in when I go back after working over them…
I’ve had the magic knot come out, so I’m back to swearing off all knots in my work (except the first and occasional the last, but I still weave in those ends)

yes! the magic knots are really temperamental if you do them a bit wrong

I work over my ends as I got because I’m lazy. I don’t think this works for everyone but how I crochet holds them nicely. It does mean you need to make sure the ends are all on the one side as you work though

I thinkbits just because you can get a nicer finish when weaving in I refer to myself as lazy with it. I could make it neater but I’d rather work faster and do the bits I enjoy most
