It seems like every knitter has her or his own way to weave in ends. There is no right or wrong way to do it. As long as your process accomplishes the goals of weaving in the ends, you've done it the right way.

· To hide the ends of the yarn, making it invisible on the right side.
· To prevent the yarn from unraveling, potentially taking your project with it.
· To make the project look nicer and wear more comfortably than it would with excess yarn lurking about.
