    I've seen a version of the second crochet method, but instead of a long tail, you simply crochet with two different colors of yarn. You'd yarn over with one color and pull through the other, then alternate it. It makes a very nice striped cord :)

    I use 1 pulling from center and the other from the outside, to Never run out of tail.

    Thank you so much! I am making Christmas presents for 21grandchildren and I was struggling with crocheting and holding the stithes. The "game changer" method is going to speed up the process immensely! Thanks again!!!

  • @RIODJENIRO1

    Thanks for sharing!! I was always taught to use the double point knitting needles to make I-CORDS when you cast on your 3 or 4 stitches and knit them you just slide them down to the other side of the same needle they were worked on, hence, the purpose of a double pointed knitting needle being used, which is basically the same as how you used the cable knitting needle. Also regarding the crochet method, I think I will try it and use a thin stitch holder since I have problems with my hands and I would more than likely drop the stitches! Again, THANK YOU for sharing these different methods for I-CORD!!

    • @TheSnugglery
      @TheSnugglery  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That's a great idea, I'd love to know if you have success with the stitch holder. If I need a cord 3 stitches or more, I definitely prefer the dpn/circular needle way too. I'm so glad you liked the video, thanks for watchin 😊

  • @KellyRusinack

    Thank you for this comprehensive tutorial! I also crochet and knit, and also look for the best way to do the job, regardless the craft. I need to make a strap, but the ribbon yarn I'm using is quirky. I tried using my lucet fork but the braid looked horrible! The same strap looked great using Bernat blanket yarn. I just don't like the "traditional" crochet way of dropping the stitches - my cats are always trying to get my attention away from my work, so I need to be able to set my work down at a moment's notice. If I had one of those French looms, I might use that, but I don't (I know I could craft my own but I'm not feeling that crafty today). The strap is for a crocheted purse, but I think I'm going to knit the i-cord handle. Thanks for helping me decide!

  • @donnakoerner4981

    My favorite way to icord is using a lucet. Some call it a knitting fork. It dates back to the Vikings. There are several ways to use it depending on the stretchyness of the yarn. Enjoy. 🙂

    • @Smulenify
      @Smulenify 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I have a few lucets and absolutely love them! Though if people want to try this method without needing to buy a special tool there are some really creative DIY ways.

    How about some more knitting on a knitting loom?? Would be fantabulous!!!!

    I really like the last two ways. Will you please make a video showing how to make rows of I chords? I want to use them to make the brim of a beanie hat. Thanks.

    Used the long tail method for shoelaces for baby booties. Worked great. Can you do more than 2 stitches?

  • @weevilgirl7948
    @weevilgirl7948 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    You can also knit icord on double pointed needles, easily slipping the work back and forth!

      Ya caught me... I don't have any DPNs🙈🙈🙈 don't tell the other knitters, I think they'll disown me!

    Ok I love the fastest method with the aqua yarn! Game changer is right! I can't wait to try this!
    But I want to know if you can do it with another stitch, to make it "square" like the rest of the Icords? I used to make my Icords by chaining the amount I wanted then slip stitching back over them. Makes the cord a bit more like a triangle shape, but still has the knit V look except the 3rd side.

    • @TheSnugglery
      @TheSnugglery  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Ooo thats a cool method too. I'm gonna have to play around with it. Honestly I made this video almost as soon as I learned about the yarning over with the tail method 'cuz I was so excited 😂

  • @juliasturdevant9289
    @juliasturdevant9289 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    You can do it on a fork also in the fashion of the loom.

    @twilightsdawningpalladino9997 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This probably won't help me today, since I need to get the item I am making in the mail in just a little while, but for future reference, how do you finish off the version that you make starting with a long tail? I can't imagine that you just leave the little tail hanging loose when you're done.

      Whatever you want really; although, it's really good for edging detail, or even the handles of mug holders or bags.
