how many yarn ends can one sweater have?

Each Wednesday, I post a snapshot of the projects I’m working on, and where my brain is at.

handknit sweater with a million ends

I’ve been avoiding weaving in the ends of this sweater for years.

And it turns out I’ve been avoiding it for good reason – it’s the sweater with ends that never end, which is one of the larger downsides to knitting intense colorwork.

I’ve been weaving in a handful of ends here and there, because I think if I tried to weave them all in at once I would hate this sweater halfway through. That seems to be working (slowly) but consistently, and hopefully the ends will end eventually.
