Thank you for this very helpful video. How would you start to add the yarn to a 4 needle I cord tool?

[@TheCATTLadyDesigns]

I don't particularly have experience with a four needle version but if you did a "backwards loop" on each needle, that is another way to go. It's definitely fiddly at the beginning though and takes some practice. You could also cast on a set of DPN needles start the icord and then transfer to the the tool!

There’s a mini cordsmith available now. I just got it today and hope it will be easy to use.

[@TheCATTLadyDesigns]

I saw that!! I hope it works well for you. I may have to get one!

@@TheCATTLadyDesignsI’m feeling really clumsy with it so I’m constantly starting over 😂😂 hopefully I will get the hang of it!

@@nancywyatt1857 yeah I think that’s totally normal. It still takes me a couple tries to get it going. lol!
