Binding off finishes your work and locks your stitches in place, so they don't unravel. It's the final step for any project – simple to do, and satisfying to see your piece come together. But not too tight!

You'll tie a lot of strands together, and in this video we show you how. For the color change we use a method so you don't have to weave in all the ends!
