One more comment: I have watched several excellent teachers showing how to graft the ends of the applied I cord but no one has explained it as well as you have. Thanks again for your excellent teaching.
I had opened about 6 different videos for tutorials on this assuming I'd have to watch a few different ones before it made sense to me but I happened to watch yours first, and closed all the others because you made everything crystal clear. You're an amazing teacher, and thank you for this perfect video.
Thank you so much for your clear instructions , mastered icord today after watching your great video . I used to have a knitting Nancy when I was a girl and it always fascinated me, now I have put this lovely stich to good use.
Thank you for such a clear and simple video. I couldn’t understand the icord instructions on the pattern I’m following. Then watched about five videos on RUclips till I found yours. Thank you so much.❤
thank you so much for this video! it's great that you use a contrasting coloured yarn to see exactly what you're doing and it's also really helpful that you explain the corners and connecting the beginning and end!
Thank you for being clear and informative. I appreciate the contrast between the colors that eliminates ambiguity. I am in awe of your presentation style.
Excellent tutorial! I’ve watched several different tutorials about applied I-cord, but this is the best of them. Just the perfect amount of information, the visual information is clear and useful, the pace is just right for me to grasp the information, no unnecessary jibber-jabber. Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial!
Ive been desperately looking for a tutorial that is so well explained - thank you! Most tutorials don’t show how to finish but this is exactly what I was looking for ⭐️⭐️⭐️
I've just found your channel looking for information on knitting a mitred square which led me to this video. WOW! Love your clear explanations. Thank you from Perth, Western Australia.
I’ve been struggling to learn this and I’ve finally gotten it ! Thank you for the detailed information and the close up so see where to put the needle .
Thank you! I can’t believe I did it! I just added this icord edge to a giant granny rectangle. This is my new go-to border for all my projects; it’s fun and more manly than frilly. ❤
Also, I know you said 3 in the corners; but 4 in the corners made them not as stiff for me on a crocheted sunburst granny square blanket. Thanks again for showing me how to do this!!
Thank you for posting, this method blew my mind and it will be the best edging for my knitted Temperature blanket because at the moment the edges are a mess !
Excellent tutorial! This is exactly what I was looking for. Very clear and easy to follow instructions. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and your skills with us. GOD BLESS.
I'm working on a mitered square baby blanket based on your tutorial showing how to join as you go and this will be the perfect way to finish it off. Your teaching is excellent and I love listening to you. Thanks.
Muchas gracias por este tutorial tan claro de comprender, en especial en la unión del inicio y final del icord, precisamente esa sección es la que no había encontrado en los distintos tutoriales que vi
What an easy to understand explanation! Thank you, teacher😍 May I ask a question? How can I make an i-code edge with a gentle curve (increasing or decreasing a stitch by ±1 stitch) like a V-neck? Should I apply the "repeat the same stitch 3 times" method? Or should I continue knitting without increasing stitches?
Hi, thank you so much for this beautiful video. It’s very detailed and easy to understand But one query I have is what to do if we do not want to attach the cord in round I do not want to attach it. I want to make the edge around the cardigan neck.❤ Will appreciate your reply, thank you🤗♥️
After 65 years of knitting I had not even heard or a corded edge now thanks to you I can do it , so simple One question , Having made a blanket fom mitred squares would I use same size needles for corded edge that squares were knitted on Really loving the effect on a sample one but not sure that it is quite right
I love this tutorial. Only question is I want to do two rows each of two colors. So two rows of i-cord in Grey and two rows in yellow...Is that possible and how would I do that?
I have a question. My knitted piece is knit on US #19. I do not have a #19 double point needle, what do you recommend? Just to use my largest double point or my largest circular that I have? Thank you!!!
I learned so much from watching your video, you are a step up from others and your explanation is awesome, you even taught me how to finish off the icord, so beautiful and seamless. You are an awesome teacher❤🩹
Thank you for such a great tutorial! I’m working on a mitered square scrap yarn blanket and want to add an I cord. Question: how would you handle the stitches in the “valley” between the two squares?
I would like to try this and would like to change the colour on each side. Do I change the colour in the same way as I would when knitting a longer row or does the yarn being pulled around the back have an affect on the colour change? I was thinking of changing the colour after the knit 3 times into the corner.
I haven’t done it myself but I would probably change at the beginning of a row like normal and then you can sew in your ends later and hide them within the icord.
does anyone know if this would help straighten out projects that curl? i just knit my first scarf with a simple knit stitch and purls and it rolls like crazy on the sides
This is an excellent video. Thanknyou for posting. I do have a question. Will you always end a repetition on the corner? Is it possible to fall short of the corner or be mid process and overshoot the corner?
You should always be able to manage your stitches so that you hit a corner correctly (I think that’s what you’re asking but please correct me if I’m misunderstood ☺️)
Question: Will the dpns be the same size as the needles used to knit? If I make a garter stitch blanket using size 6 circular, will I use 6 or 5 dpns for the applied icord?
Thank you for this clear tutorial, def will need to practice the finishing off part with yarn needle. It would have been super helpful as well if this was shown in a U.K. knitting way as well as the continental. As a new knitter it can be confusing. ❤
hi! so a question what were to happen if you run out of yarn mid applied cord? or alternatively if you want to do alternating colours without an alternating coloured yarn? THANKS !

Hi, thank you so much for this beautiful video. It’s very detailed and easy to understand
But one query I have is what to do if we do not want to attach the cord in round I do not want to attach it. I want to make the edge around the cardigan neck.❤
Will appreciate your reply, thank you🤗♥️
You would just cast off your stitches and then sew in neatly
After 65 years of knitting I had not even heard or a corded edge now thanks to you I can do it , so simple
One question , Having made a blanket fom mitred squares would I use same size needles for corded edge that squares were knitted on
Really loving the effect on a sample one but not sure that it is quite right
I used the same size needles but there’s no harm in sizing down slightly if you find your tension is different
Thank you very clear video!
Excellent🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
I love this tutorial. Only question is I want to do two rows each of two colors. So two rows of i-cord in Grey and two rows in yellow...Is that possible and how would I do that?
Do you have to use the same size dpns as your needles you knit with? I used 8 but i have 7s in dpns already. Will that work?
Very clear, thanks!!
Thank you ❤
Thank you!❤
So beautiful😍
Thank you 🥰
Excellent
Is the techniques the same if you are working on stocking stitch? You have demonstrated on garter stitch.
Yes pretty much, you just want to pop one stitch into each row of stockinette
Thanks a lot 🙏🤗❤🌷
You’re welcome! 😀🧶
Thank you!
I have a question. My knitted piece is knit on US #19. I do not have a #19 double point needle, what do you recommend? Just to use my largest double point or my largest circular that I have? Thank you!!!

Thank you for such a great tutorial! I’m working on a mitered square scrap yarn blanket and want to add an I cord. Question: how would you handle the stitches in the “valley” between the two squares?
I’d probably pick a stitch or two up from The Valley - whatever feels natural to keep tension even
I would like to try this and would like to change the colour on each side. Do I change the colour in the same way as I would when knitting a longer row or does the yarn being pulled around the back have an affect on the colour change? I was thinking of changing the colour after the knit 3 times into the corner.
I haven’t done it myself but I would probably change at the beginning of a row like normal and then you can sew in your ends later and hide them within the icord.
Soooooo pretty 🥰
Thank you!!
does anyone know if this would help straighten out projects that curl? i just knit my first scarf with a simple knit stitch and purls and it rolls like crazy on the sides
Yes it should help :)
This is an excellent video. Thanknyou for posting. I do have a question. Will you always end a repetition on the corner? Is it possible to fall short of the corner or be mid process and overshoot the corner?
You should always be able to manage your stitches so that you hit a corner correctly (I think that’s what you’re asking but please correct me if I’m misunderstood ☺️)
@@SnufflebeanYarn Thank you. Yes that answers my question perfectly.
Is there a way to do it without double pointed needles? I don;t have any and don't want to go out and but some just for this... D:
You can, it’s more tedious but at the end of each row you can slip your stitches onto a new needle to get them into the correct position
When adding the i cord would you want to go up a needle size from the that used on the kitted piece? Might this keep the drape of the whole piece?
I used the same size needle but you could experiment with a bigger needle if you wanted to.
If I put this on my Stockinette stiched blanket will it help to keep it from rolling in at the sides?
It should do, you could also try my mitred garter stitch border as that will help even more
@@SnufflebeanYarn perfect I’ll look for that thank you,
Question: Will the dpns be the same size as the needles used to knit? If I make a garter stitch blanket using size 6 circular, will I use 6 or 5 dpns for the applied icord?
I normally use the same size, but if you find your tension is a little off then you can size down if you feel it looks better 🙂
Do your yarn and needles need to be the same size as what you used for the main item?
Ideally yes, but you can make it work with a different yarn you’ll just have to adjust how often you pick up stitches
Hi, there is no 'SAVE' available. Any chance you could add this feature as I love your video!
When you say ‘save’, what do you mean? You can save my video to you watch later playlist if you want to find it more easily.
@@SnufflebeanYarn I don't know what happened. I could not get the SAVE option to display. All ok now. Thank you for replying 🤪
MERCI BEAUCOUP. 😊
Do you use the same size needles as you used on your work?
Yes I do :)
Hii, should I do this before or after blocking the project??
I’ll confess I’m not a person that blocks items but I’m inclined to say before? That way you’ll block out the icord edging too.
Thank you for this clear tutorial, def will need to practice the finishing off part with yarn needle. It would have been super helpful as well if this was shown in a U.K. knitting way as well as the continental. As a new knitter it can be confusing. ❤
I only know how to knit continental style I’m afraid 🙂
Grazie, bellissimo,RSI può utilizzare anche per unire quadrati.
hi! so a question what were to happen if you run out of yarn mid applied cord? or alternatively if you want to do alternating colours without an alternating coloured yarn? THANKS !
You would just change yarn like you normally would when knitting an icord and hide the ends when you’re done 🙂
I have found that the time to introduce a new color is on the K2tog thru the back loop.
do you block the knitting before or after doing the i-cord?
If I need to block the work I’d do it before the icord
I think finishing off the icord is very similar if not the same as Kitchener stitch.
Hi there. Do you suggest the same needle size as your work or a smaller needle?
Same needle size as the work is what I normally do 🙂
Do you use the same size needle as the garter for the icord?
Hi, Yes I did 😁
when I do this and follow your tutorial exactly my colors blend oddly on the right side... can't figure out why! it's just not clean like yours.
Maybe it’s the type of yarn?
Bravissima
