By the way, as you can see, knitting an i cord is quite easy. We have other ways to knit it without a double pointed needle, so follow along, please.

 

Thick I Cord

This is a four stitch i cord knitted with single point needles. You pretty much follow this technique and add or subtract a stitch depending how thick your want the i cord.

This is a super easy way to make a loose i cord with your fingers. This is a specially fun project for kids, though quite enjoyable to any age. Once you’ve knitted and i cord with your hand you can use them as trim, to layer necklaces, a streamers, garlands, for braids, etc.
