Expertly and invisibly weave ends into seed stitch. Perfect for my Building Blocks knitters!

I typically weave in the ends prior to blocking but I leave a 1″ tail hanging. This safeguards against any tails pulling through in the blocking process. Once dry, I trim the tails flush to the fabric. Hope this helps!
Do you weave in the block ends BEFORE you block them or after the blocking?
So sorry for the unraveling! If the loose tails are long enough, try reweaving them. I generally weave in a tail that is 3″-4″ long. You can use some of your left over yarn to repair the holes and make the area more secure. Hope this helps!
I love your videos! Thank you! But I have a problem: I used a chunky alpaca for my Building Blocks blanket and made it larger (4×5 with 14” blocks) so it is quite heavy (but dreamy!!) The problem is there is a lot of stress on the woven in ends and I have holes where the woven-in ends have given way and unraveled. Do you have any suggestions as to length of tail, or maybe using a sewing machine to tack down the weaves or something to prevent the tails from in weaving? Thanks!!!
