over a few stitches, you can drop the yarn and leave a short float (making sure
it's not too tight) or crochet over it instead of fastening it off each time.

Gauge:
It's important to make sure the hook size you're using is the
appropriate size for your yarn and tension. Choose a size that makes
the stitches tight enough so stuffing doesn't show through. Generally,
you should use a hook that is about 2 sizes smaller than recommended
on the yarn label.
