How to Bind Off Knitting
So you've made something special and you're ready to get it off your needles. Here's three ways you can bind off your stitches and call the project done.
Regular Bind Off
This is the most common bind off method and it'll work for most projects. If you find that your bind off is a little tight, you can redo it using a larger needle size or two.
Stretchy Bind Off
Great for items that need a stretchy edge like hats, socks and the hem or cuff on sweaters.
iCord
Creates a beautiful edge that looks like a horizontal row of French knitting. iCord has minimal stretch and is commonly made by working 3 or 4 stitches at a time. The more stitches used, the larger the iCord will be.
