You have a special gift with your knitting and teaching. Thank you for your tutorials and information - I am in awe of all you know and how much you share with others!!!
❤I just would repeat the same comments❣️ Youuuu are my most appreciated TEACHER here in the counteyside of Japan! Just LOVE IT & your teachings. Wondering how to send you out a sign of appreciation.
Thank you so much for creating this video. I’ve been knitting for too many years to count, but want to sharpen my skills and make WOW sweaters! I’ve read about this technique but couldn’t get it right. Thank you so much for your clear instructions.
Amazing how the little things can make a world of a difference!! Much thanks for sharing, truly appreciated. Just picking up my needles again after a few decades (🙄) of them collecting dust. So many new things to absorb, and you do an excellent job of walking through & explaining👍🏼👍🏼 Lol, hope you don’t mind, but I may take your “blipping thru” as my catch phrase for those “duh” moments. Much thanks & take care💛
With the I-cord cast on you showed us how to adjust for stitch/row gauge differences by skipping edge stitches. How would you adjust for the cast off I-cord stitch/row gauge difference?
Do you not get the same stitch-gauge-vs-row-gauge issue here as with the i-cord cast-on? Making matching edges for a blanket. Thanks so much for your videos, you're so brilliant!!
Really interesting video. I was wondering if there aren't any gauge problems when binding off, no problems like pulling in. I guess not, as I can see it's nice and perfect. But I'd like to know why. Thank you in advance and happy knitting!!
Great point! You would need to swatch a wider piece to see. In my experience, yes there is. See my video on the i-cord cast on for more details. ruclips.net/video/3M_SZ9EbhK8/видео.html I will have another video up today or tomorrow on applied i-cord that also talks about differences in gauge. Thank you so much for bringing this up!
What I didn't see was the method of s1 k1 psso, instead of a slip as if to purl (which you did), you can slip as if to knit, which twists that stitch and closes the hole that the contrast color is behind, so it can't be seen peeking through.
The details like this make our work shine✨✨✨! Thanks, Suzanne! One thing, I was watching your video on how to do the three-needle bind-off and it's not as detailed as this one and you said in one comment that you're going to film it again. In that video the quality of the image is low. Thanks again and Happy Easter!
I liked the first method with the blips... It makes a cool design effect! However if you want to hide it and did on the wrong side would you still knit or would you purl because you are on the wrong side?
I am knitting my i cord edging with the last 2 stitches through the back loop but the edge is curling up. Should I try binding off on the wrong side? The colors are the same.
This was super helpful thank you! Also, is it possible to do a three-needle bind off and I-cord at the same time? I’m looking at a pillow that has an icord that you sew on separately but want to be more Efficent
Yes, I call it an i-cord join. You hold both fabrics together, WSs together. Start your i-cord. Such as: Cast on 3 sts. With the right needle go through both layers of fabric at the edge and pull through a loop of the working yarn onto the right needle. * Slide stitches to the other end of the needle. K2, ssk, with the right needle go through both layers of the fabric one row up from previous picked up stitch and pull through another loop. Repeat from *.
Thank you.You are a perfect teacher.
Thank you! 😃

Wow, thank you!🧶
OMG you have these tiny tiny details to everything & it helps me improve my projects, Thank you so so much.
You are so welcome!
You really do the most informative demonstrations. I think of myself as a little experienced, but I have so much to learn from you. Thank you.
You are so welcome, Angela! There is always something new to learn, even for me! 😉
OMG I learn so much from you. Thank you so much !
You are so welcome!
I love your final solution! It’s genius. 😀
Thank you! 😊
Thanks for demonstrating each scenario, helps us to decide which will work best for a particular project.
You are welcome!
❤I just would repeat the same comments❣️ Youuuu are my most appreciated TEACHER here in the counteyside of Japan! Just LOVE IT & your teachings. Wondering how to send you out a sign of appreciation.
thanks, Suzanne. i like how you show a technique using swatches! i can learn the skill by doing swatches instead of doing full projects!
Exactly. I love making swatches before working on the real project.
Very interesting technique! Thanks for sharing this with us!!💕💕
Thank you! Cheers!
Thank you so much for creating this video. I’ve been knitting for too many years to count, but want to sharpen my skills and make WOW sweaters! I’ve read about this technique but couldn’t get it right. Thank you so much for your clear instructions.
You are so welcome!
Such an EXCELLENT video! Many many thanks! 🙏🏼
Thank you so much!!! These details never occurred to me and I think I’d like to bind off with a different color so thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Love seeing the comparisons.
Thank you so, Cathy! 😊
Wonderful thank you so much!
You're very welcome!

Merhaba Suzanne...Türkiye 'den selamlar..Çok güzel teknik.🤗🤗
ABD'den merhaba ve selamlar. İzlediğiniz için çok teşekkürler! 😊
Thank you greetings from Ireland
You are very welcome.
With the I-cord cast on you showed us how to adjust for stitch/row gauge differences by skipping edge stitches. How would you adjust for the cast off I-cord stitch/row gauge difference?
Hi Bonnie, the best thing to do is to swatch and see if you need to compensate and how much. Nice to see you. 🧶
Do you not get the same stitch-gauge-vs-row-gauge issue here as with the i-cord cast-on? Making matching edges for a blanket. Thanks so much for your videos, you're so brilliant!!
the only way to tell is to create a swatch. Make a swatch about 4 or 5 inches wide and test it out.
Thanks for the detailed explanation! I was wondering if there are any i-cord edge methods that roll less than others?
Really interesting video. I was wondering if there aren't any gauge problems when binding off, no problems like pulling in. I guess not, as I can see it's nice and perfect. But I'd like to know why. Thank you in advance and happy knitting!!

I was wondering the same thing. Like maybe I should increase my needle size when I use an i-cord bind off so it doesn’t pull on the sweater
What I didn't see was the method of s1 k1 psso, instead of a slip as if to purl (which you did), you can slip as if to knit, which twists that stitch and closes the hole that the contrast color is behind, so it can't be seen peeking through.
Great tip, thank you.

Thank you. I have added it to my video todo list
I liked the first method with the blips... It makes a cool design effect!
However if you want to hide it and did on the wrong side would you still knit or would you purl because you are on the wrong side?
You would still knit. although you can do i-cord in purls, it gives a completely different look.
Thank you 🌹! Suzanne i have a question for you : how to turn ? I mean how knit this cord on the corners if i want to go around a blanket?
Good question! I have an upcoming video on how to do the corners. Keep an eye out for it.
I am knitting my i cord edging with the last 2 stitches through the back loop but the edge is curling up. Should I try binding off on the wrong side? The colors are the same.
Thanks again🌸🌼🌹
Always welcome
would we still have the problem of row and stitches gauge difference that you explain int the I-cord CO video?
Yes, it is always a good idea to check your gauge on a swatch.
Go ahead & click "like". 😀
