Perfect Bind-Off for Garter Stitch: The Icelandic Bind-OffThe Icelandic bind-off, good for Garter stitch. The Icelandic bind-off is faster because it is done "on the needles" as opposed to sewn with a tapestry needle. It matches the fabric almost perfectly, and is strong, stretchy, and sturdy â just what the doctor ordered. Tip: You can use the Icelandic Bind-off on any fabric, not just Garter stitch. Try it on Stockinette -- it will make a pretty little rolled edge. Go to this post to see step-by-step photo instructions, tips and tricks, and an animated demo: http://knitfreedom.com/bind-offs/3-gorgeous-bind-offs-garter-stitch

Two ways to make i-cord bind offIn most cases, the regular way to bind off stitches works just fine. But if you want to add a special touch to the open edges of your project, you need to use a special way of closing the stitches. I-cord bind off is one of those ways.
It turns plain edges of a blanket, cowl, top-down hat and toe-up socks into a sophisticated decoration, and adds an elegant detail to cuffs and bottom of a top-down sweater. A big bonus of this bind off is that it is fully reversible and looks great with any stitch pattern.
Even though the i-cord bind off looks quite fancy, it is not hard to do. In fact, this shows two ways to make this bind off, one easier than the other.2019-05-04 20:38:00 -

Perhaps you want to add ribbing to a top-down hat, or you need ribbing on both sides of a pillow or blanket.
