A useful picture tutorial securing stitches by crochet before steeking is the one by Brooklyn Tweed, easy to follow as the sample is in neutral colours.
Ysolda’s tutorial is useful to picture how matters will look on a busier, more colourful pattern. She has a video too:

I used to knit as a girl, then hanged the needles for two/three decades, and now I’m back, and loving it!
The photo is my version of Linda Marveng's Aki, the first proper project after "being born again". After getting back into knitting, weaving has also become my passion (with a little sewing to turn my handweaving into garments).
