Hey, how do you all weave in your ends when working in garter stitch, when there's no right or wrong side? In stocking stitch, I just work on the bumpy side, and nothing shows on the smooth side. In garter stitch, I'm not so sure what to do.

ETA: while we're at it, how about lace?

I try to make all my ends finish on an edge, and then weave them up the side of the edge. Obviously this doesn't work for things knitted in the round, but they usually have an inside anyhow.

Same here - anticipate when the yarn is going to finish, then end a couple of stitches in, and weave it into the side. (I find my edges go extra wobbly if I end on an actual edge, though.)
