Now, I know we all hate it, but I can bet since there are not any color changes you will only have 2 ends to weave in, and if you tuck in the beginning tail while you work, you only have one, so lets weave in what ends you do have, sit back, and think "This is the COOLEST Square I have EVER Made!!!"
