6 TIPS to CROCHET an I-CORD Easily & Fast 

Was this helpful? Which is your favorite tip?😍

This was it. This was the video that allowed me to make an iced without straining my hand too much. Thank you

OMG, Nicki! I have not attempted an I-cord before but needed one for my project today. The last method of creating one was genius. I whipped up a 36” cord in no time. Thank you so much. ❤

Quick tip on the last skinny I-cord - work it using both ends of your yarn. Do the slip knot with both ends, then continue on. That way you don't have to guess how much yarn to pull off and can make the I-cord the length you need. Learned this the hard way and this was an easy fix.

thank you so much I am not a crochet but needed a icord you did a magnificent job

I like the last one. The one where you work with the non working yarn. I just learned how to make the basic cord using only 2 loops.🤩

Oh my goodness, i know this is crochet, but I just used number six to join two panels of a knitted cable afghan and it looks amazing! I’m so pleased. I’ve been looking for a join that would match well with the cables and not be too time consuming, and this was perfect. I have an outside slip stitch and then a knit stitch. I slipped the slip stitches together with a crochet hook and then did the icord stitch all the way up the seam. The knit stitch sits at the base on either side of the icord causing it to look more raised and like a ridge. So quick and easy and pretty! I love it. Thanks so much!

Love this! Was about to give up on the I-cord and this method using a needle was so much easier for me, thanks!!

Nicki thanks for all the tips I have found if I use a wooden needle the loops don’t slip so much for me. But I absolutely love the skinny one and of course the spiral one very nice too!

Thank you very much for these tips. Gonna try it today. I’ve had several attempts and didn’t succeed. I am positive with one of your tips I will succeed at last.

Thank you very much the tips you have share to do i_cord. You are the good teacher.

Thank you for the tutorial! I especially loved to learn the last one that makes a narrow cord.

Best tutorial yet on I cord....thanks!!

I've been using the last technique (tip 6) for years, and I love how fast it works up, but I have a really hard time figuring out how much tail to leave for specific lengths.

Thanks😊

Thank you verymuch. It was very helpful to me.From India👌👌

I really like the last one! It's so much quicker. Thank you!

THANKS NIKKI! Love these ideas.

Thank you for the awesome tips. I have been struggling to do this stitch for years!

Thanks so much dear u hv made my work easier dear

Thank goodness you made this video, I have not been able to find one online and when I tried it before, I gave up because I thought it was not correct cause mine was not as tight as the persons in the other videos. Thank you!

Thank you Nicki look forward to trying the last one and going to watch your spiral rope next while I crochet loafers with your candy cane border added.

No manejo el idioma, pero explicas muy bien, viendo el video se hace fácil. FELICITACIONES desde Chile.

I like the last one, very helpful. Thank you!

Thank You! You explain it so well. It looks easy (to me, a lefty beginner) now!

Thank you for this tutorial ❣️❣️❣️

Hi, thank you for doing these videos. They are very helpful

Thanks for the video. It was really informative. I will probably start with the last quick one. I crocheted a little poncho and I think it would look cute to weave the cord around the neck and tie a bow.

Yes, it was very helpful. Thank you. I particularly like the cable needle one and the thin one. I like the spiral cord too, but really need to practise that one... a lot.🥰

If you make your slip knot with one skein and then attach a second skein to the non working end, you can work from both as long as you want.

Thank you for sharing, I have been looking for shopping bags cord, is there another pattern you could share that is not stretchy... You explain so well, thank you 🇨🇦

To make the last cord you can take a yarn cake and pull for the inside and out side ends to make a cord as long as you want without running out of yarn. Also use two skeins of the same color or another if you want a variation of colors in the cord.

Thanks for this tutorial. I already know I’m going to be using these stitches for several projects.

Very helpful tutorial. Thank you.

Genius! Thanks for the tips :D

Wow! Cool!

I’m going to attempt to use more than one colour of yarn. Do you think it’ll work?

I wonder if a double ended crochet hook would work....

awesome

Im puzzled, when I do it..its basically a pannel, its not joined, like a cord? the stitces either side are not linked to each other..

Can you make it if you want to put it on a purse

First one is knitting with a crochet hook. 😉

Can you explain to me what is an I cord
