ICORD EDGES

  • Step 1: Cast on 3 stitches (sts) onto a double-pointed needle (DPN).
  • Step 2: Slide the stitches to the right without turning the needle. This keeps your work in the correct orientation.
  • Step 3: Take the working yarn and position it along the back. Hold it tightly across the stitches. Ensure the tension is snug but not overly tight—each stitch should appear as a natural continuation of the previous one.
  • Step 4: Knit the next 2 stitches.
  • Step 5: Slip the next stitch purlwise (this means moving it off the needle without knitting it).
  • Step 6: Carefully pick up a stitch from the blanket where the I-Cord will be attached, and knit it.
  • Step 7: Pass the slipped stitch (from Step 5) over the newly knitted stitch (from Step 6). You will now have 3 stitches on your DPN, and your I-Cord will be securely attached to your work.

Repeat from Step 2 until the end.
