I really enjoy the barber cord/stitch saver cord. It isn't perfect, it easier than waste yarn for not only trying it on but putting sleeves on hold. Instead of the expensive barber cords, I bought a spool of rubber tubing and just cut off what I need.
Yes, I heard the same thing about the name brand Barber Cord being available just as rubber tubing in the hardware store. That's the route I'll go if I'm ever convinced to give it a try.
Too funny! I just ordered a Magner Co bag and it arrived today. The ocean color with a canvas strap. It's crazy big 😊 so my next shawl project is going in it.
I tried the stitch saver cord and it snagged so badly that it wasnt really worth it. Its easy to get the needles back on, but hard af to get the stitches onto the cord. Not a fan. I just use my interchangeable needles and the stoppers! Waste yarn if i need length.
Yeah, just seems like I'm introducing an unknown quantity when I'm pretty content w/ my methods now. I can imagine the panic of not getting that cord on there good.
The Kwanzaa sweater is fabulous. I love how you include your children in your crafting.

Very cool. It's deceptively deep and roomy.
