Some folks crochet over their ends, some weave them in. While I have crocheted over them on occasion, I prefer to weave them in to safely secure them to prevent the yarn tail/s from unraveling over time from wear and washing, and when doing so with a super chunky yarn that does not thread through a tapestry needle well, or pull easily through fabric, I use a small crochet hook instead.

What Tools Do You Need to Weave In Ends?
I like to use a G6/4.25mm crochet hook. You want a hook small enough to comfortably fit through your stitches with a deep enough throat to easily grab your yarn. A hook with a shallow throat will not be able to grab the yarn and if it does, will most likely lose it in the stitches.
