We've finished crocheting the Terran Afghan Square, and now it is time to weave in the ends.
✨️ You can crochet your own square or see other projects in my Terran series, #elkccycc_terran
✨️ You will also love my Maddie series, which uses this same exact square but crochets them together into larger projects, #elkccycc_maddie
✨️ Rather than pick up a whole stitch on my needle, I like to break my strands in half when I enter and exit to help capture my yarn better.
✨️ I always work 3 passes. If you feel secure after 2, then fasten off, but if you feel you need to work a 4th pass, do it. It's whatever you feel most comfortable with, and can vary each time.
❤️ Thread your tapestry needle with the tail from the center. Run the needle clockwise back to where the tail end starts and then push through a few more stitches. Hold the fabric in between your fingers of one hand and with the other, tug on the strand to close up the hole. Rotate the square, and work in the opposite direction through several of the stitches just finished. Use your fingers to manipulate the fabric if it has bunched up. Repeat once more. Fasten off.
❤️ Thread tapestry needle with another tail end, then insert needle into a nearby stitch. Run the needle through several stitches of the same color - I suggest vertically or diagonally so the fabric doesn't bunch up. Pull through and then use your fingers to manipulate the fabric if needed. Repeat working in the opposite direction through several of the stitches just worked, manipulating the fabric as needed. Repeat once more. Fasten off.
❤️ Continue with all ends, then celebrate 🥳
🧶 For this square, I am using Lion Brand Pound of Love that we carry in our yarn shop, YarnCraftsandCoffee.com, and a H8/5mm crochet hook that I custom ordered from SiennasBowtique on Etsy, but you can use any yarn with the respective size crochet hook.
🩶 Complete written pattern coming soon to my Yarn Crafts & Coffee blog.

![How to Add a Hanging Loop to Crocheted Washcloth | How to Crochet a Hanging Loop for a Washcloth
Learn how to add a hanging loop to a crocheted washcloth so you can easily dry your crocheted dishcloth or keep it stored out of the way until youre ready to use it. The bonus is the hanging loop will also keep your washcloth from falling down.
The washcloths I am showing the tutorial for are my Haylee ones as part of my 2024 Mystery Washcloth Crochet a Long, but you can easily work this tutorial into any single crochet border on a washcloth.

![Through the Window Mosaic Crochet Afghan Border in the Back Loop 💙💚 | EyeLoveKnots
In my last video, I touched on working into the side edge to work the first round of the border on my afghan. For the remaining rounds, Ive decided on [US] single crochet worked into the back loop only. It creates a beautiful ribbed fabric with a ridge, and I just love it! And its easy to work too!
💙To single crochet into the back loop only (or SC into the BLO): rather than inserting into the stitch to pick up both loops of the V shape, insert your hook into the top center of the stitch. Push your hook towards the back, or wrong side of the fabric, picking up just the back loop of the stitch on your hook. Finish the stitch as normal (ie yarn over, pull through, yarn over, pull through both loops).
