    Hello!

    Hello! I am new to crocheting and new to this group...I have been reviewing site and find it very helpful in my new adventure.
    I have quit smoking 43 days ago and so far made 2 blankets and a scarf, lol...I am so addicted to crocheting now.

    I am having a problem with reading patterns and weaving of the ends. I have weaved them as instructed by reading advice and you tube, but the ends keep coming out...any suggestions?

    Hello,

    Welcome to the group! It is great to have you here on site with us! I am wondering how loosely you are crocheting? If you work your ends into an area that is more tightly crocheted, maybe this will help you. It is hard to say without seeing a picture. Hopefully, you will have some more suggestions given! Glad you are here with us!

    I crochet loosely, but have weaved the ends into tighter spaces hoping that would help, but it does not. The first I did I ended up knotting and then doing my border which covered the knots.
