This is an in depth exploration of a variety of ways to work i-cord bind off along with the pros and cons of each method. I also demonstrate how to use i-cord bind off to mimic an i-cord cast on.
It is in conjunction with a full tutorial on i-cords on my other Channel - Suzanne - Off the Cuff

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💛

I feel clever because I came up with doing it from the wrong side myself! I never would have thought of doing the last row in the contrast colour, though. Very clever. I also liked the recap at the end of the video.

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!!

@SuzanneBryan 4 жыл бұрын

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. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/abOPhr1qqsjMe2w.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!

@crystalrose.wellness 3 жыл бұрын

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

@georgiasimon9193 2 жыл бұрын

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!!

@SuzanneBryan 2 жыл бұрын

the only way to tell is to create a swatch. Make a swatch about 4 or 5 inches wide and test it out.

@bonniedavis6790 3 жыл бұрын

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?

@SuzanneBryan 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Bonnie, the best thing to do is to swatch and see if you need to compensate and how much. Nice to see you. 🧶

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!

Thanks for the detailed explanation! I was wondering if there are any i-cord edge methods that roll less than others?

@loiswagner2871 3 жыл бұрын

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.

@knitballsoffire3231 2 жыл бұрын

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

@SuzanneBryan 2 жыл бұрын

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 *.

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?

@SuzanneBryan 4 жыл бұрын

You would still knit. although you can do i-cord in purls, it gives a completely different look.

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.
