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.

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 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

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?

@SnufflebeanYarn Жыл бұрын

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 🙂

@bv1266 6 ай бұрын

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?
