3. Move the yarn to the back of the work.
4. The last stitch on the row should be knit. This
technique gives the piece a finished look with
a smooth edge on both sides.
Photo Tutorial – Bind Off:

the first stitch over the second stitch.
until all sts have been bound off.
3. TIP. If the last st is too loose, you can k2tog
with the last stitch and the edge st.
4. Pull the last remaining stitch to form a long
loop and cut the yarn. Pull the yarn through
the stitch to create a knot. Weave in the ends.
