Different ways to finish off a yarn project of knitting/crocheting?

I'm looking for different ways to finish off a yarn project. Usually I just cut the yarn, knot it one more time, then weave it through. There has to be other ways out there. Last year I discovered the "russian join" for changing colors in between projects without having to knot the yarns - and it changed my life :) also made my projects look 1000 times better http://www.knittinganyway.com/freethings/russianjoin.htm Looking for some other magic technique for finishing off a yarn project of knitting/crocheting?

I guess you are talking about yarn and not thread. Here is a site for you to look at and use it to put edgings around the article you have finished. What you should do when you have finished the article is to cit the thread and use your hook or needle and pull the thread through the last stitch on your nedle. then use your crochet needle to weave it through several stitches in one directiona dn then reverse the weaving. However if you are going to make an edging don't do that unless you are going to use a different color of yarn. As far as the site is concerned just click on the differnt names of the edgings to see what you may like.
