CUT & HIDE ENDS
Techniques review:
Take the shuttle/needle over/under/over to the left, then under/over/under back to the right. Use the point of the shuttle/needle or a crochet hook to move the thread tightly down to the point.
This is an example of encapsulation, where threads are begin covered using the split ring technique.
Josephine Ring/Chain uses sets of half stitches
First half stitch.
Second half stitch.
