Technique - I-cord Bind off

The I-cord bind-off creates a corded edge. It is typically created using 3 cast-on stitches but can be more or less to give a thicker or thinner cord.

Technique:

1. Cast-on 3 stitches using the cable method
2. Knit the first two stitches then slip then knit two together through the back loop = 3 stitches on the right needle
3. Slip the 3 stitches on the right needle back onto the left needle and then repeat step 2 to the end
4. Knit last two stitches together and weave in the end
