Here is how I buried the ends in the half hitching around the carabiner I recently posted

Tie overhand knot around ring, short tag end. Pull down tag end parallel to ring.

Continue half hitching until desired length. Tie at least 4 loose half hitches reeve Working End through these hitches.

Starting with loop in top center (second loose loop). One at a time. Tighten the remaining loops (four loops in all)
