Why is 'how to kiss' in the suggestions....

[planetjune]

@4TheCacti Haha, no idea! It's nothing to do with me :D

Thank you! How can I make it wider about half an inch? Do I chain 6 instead of 3 and drop 2?

[planetjune]

@purpleshammrock you can make a wider i-cord tube, by starting with more chains and dropping all but one loops off the hook. I’d recommend you don’t go too wide though, as it’s easier to accidentally pull out one of the dropped loops when you have more of them in play. I’d recommend you stick with a 3-ch or 4-ch crocheted i-cord. For anything wider than that, make a sc spiral (or learn to knit it on double pointed needles).

What are I-cords used for anyway? Personally, when I finish mine I'll put on my key chain and use as a decoration, thanks for this simple yet amazing video!❤😄😌

[planetjune]

@k9gsd117 You're welcome! There are lots of potential uses for i-cord, for example in amigurumi, as trim, or even to make bag handles :)

Ok! Sorry....I got it! I kept trying and turns out the further I got and as I stretched ...it formed! Thank you! Very creative yet simple enough for even me! :-)

Very useful :D I can knit, but my i-cords aren't the best in knitting. This would be fantastic for a pull-string hoodie.

[InternetLessons]

wow...perfect! thank you so much!

[RunWayUnderground]

Wow! thank you for that! It's so much better to actually watch a stitch/technique being done than just reading the directions. Your demo was concise, accurate and very easy to follow. Thanks!!!

I didn't know that i-cord could be done by crochet. Thank you for showing me!
