CLOSED: Nerd Games - Winter 2021

I really, really used to hate weaving in the ends and I would only do projects with solid colors or very limited color changes. Now, I find it a little relaxing, actually. I tend to weave my ends in pretty thoroughly, so it takes me a little longer than it probably should.
