I really enjoyed learning some new tricks for I - cord. You podcast was very informative and interesting. I happen to have a baby sweater that I have not been happy with that you I-cord idea is just perfect for. Thanks! I must listen to all the other podcasts too. It is so fun to learn something new.

I had so many ah ha moments during this podcast. There was so many things with I-cord I didn't know. Thanks so much for sharing.

I agree! There were so many wonderful tips on I cord, that a video or written tutorial would be wonderful!

Wow! I've always wondered about doing i-cord, and now I've done it with Kelly's help! Thanks so much for translating this to plain-English for me!

Hi kelly
I wish you could post a video on putting it on as a border or edge. I tried to figure it out but can't get my head around it.

I just listened to the I-cord podcast and really was amazed at all you can do with it, but I too am a visual person and would love to see a tutorial on the different uses that you mentioned, just as Marvel Nofziger commented on a few days ago. I always learn so much from your podcast.

I especially appreciate the book reviews. Thanks!

Many libraries today offer free audiobook downloads from the comfort of your home. Check your local library website. If they don't offer it, request that your library check into offering the service. My local library is in the process of getting a subscription and I can't wait!

I did a quick check of your video tutorials. I didn't see one for I-cord. If there is one, I apologize. Would it be possible to do a tutorial and show the techniques that you mentioned in this podcast? I'm a visual person and have much more success if I see it being done. Thanks.

Kelley,
Perfect timing on the i-cord refresher. I'm getting close to the end of my Moderne baby blanket and planning for the border. Laurie King's series of books has been a favorite of mine for some time and I'm glad that a new one is FINALLY coming out. I almost bought the last 2 of the Outlander series even though they were the abridged version, but caught myself just in time when I realized the narrator was different. I just can't imagine anyone other than Davina Porter reading those books. I was home Friday with a migraine and whimpering when I kept picking up my knitting to distract me but it hurt too badly to focus on it. I do love football, but you should try watching golf with your needlework. Lots of replays so if you miss a great shot you know they'll show it again. And, it's the best this weekend - The Masters!
