Sculpted Knits

In addition to working with circular needles to knit,

here is a fun project I enjoy, making I-cord,

a circular knit using 4 stitches on double ended needles.

When I first learned to do this,

there was a lot of frustration and foul language,

but after a while it just became enjoyable.

I started making it several years ago for purse handles,

and now use it for key chains,

and most recently, these sculpted knit necklaces,

which have been a real hit at handmade markets.
