Cut the yarn, leaving an ~8-12 in end. With a crochet hook, pull the yarn through the sts one at a time, dropping each off the needle. If desired, pull yarn end through each st a 2nd time. Pull tightly to close; tuck end inside.

 

Finishing: Work in all ends with tapestry needle or crochet hook. (Try a crochet hook for this - no need to thread needle & it is fast.)
