    Hello, I'm new at this site. Not sure yet how to use it.
    I do have a ( ? )
    I need help at the ends of my projects. I not sure which is the last stitch, therefore
    I usually add extra ones or miss it all together, when I'm turning around to start a new row. HELP

    Hi and welcome! Put a small safety pin in the last stitch of the row! That way you will always know where it is! Hope that helps! Glad you joined us!

    Putting a marker (can be anything from a pin to a real marker) at the end and bringing it up every row is most helpful to keep the sides even and would also help with the end. The women on this site told me and it saved my last project.

    Hello,

    Welcome to the group! It is great to have you here! Yes- using something to mark your last stitch is a real time saver and will help with knowing where your last stitch is in your project. I have even used an earring when I could not find a safety pin.

    Hi and Welcome!
    I used to have that problem and if I am not careful I run into it again. What you have been told is the solution. Finding that last stitch on the previous row is so important!
    Do you have any pictures of your work? We LOVE pctures!!

    Happy Crafting!
