CROCHETED I-CORD



CROCHETED I-CORD





Materials:



Any weight yarn

Crochet hook to work at a firm gauge

Notes:

1. Samples made with Red Heart Super Saver and G (4.5 mm) crochet hook

2. If you are making the I-Cord to be felted, I use an I (5.5 mm) crochet hook with worsted weight wool.

3. You will be working from the inside of a "tube".

4. You can work I-Cord over clothes line or drapery cord to make it stable.



Round 1: With G hook ch 2, depending how big you want the I-Cord 4, 5 or 6 sc in second chain from hook. Do not join.

Round 2-until desired length: Sc in back loop of next sc. Continue working sc in back loop until cord is as long as needed.

Fasten off leaving a 4 inch tail. Weave tail through the sc from the outside and pull snug.

I'm sorry... What is it?? What is it for?? I don't mean to sound rude, I am genuinely confused.

The photos are of just a short piece, usually it is made long for handles on bags and totes.

This is great!! Your pattern is exactly what I did, thinking I was incorrect, by other pattern standards(use a hdc in bl).
So I guess you can make an I-cord with two strands, as I did, with a sc in bl. Your pattern comes out beautifully with two strands!
I'm glad I found yuor site. I have more confidence in my I-cord.
Thank you. :)

Crochet is an art form, no rights or wrongs. That's my opinion, and I'm not changing it. LOL
