I-Cord Tool by Cordsmith
Regular price $ 35.00 Save $ -35.00Designed by a maker, for makers. The handle is made from 3D printed plastic in 14 color options, two different size options, with 3 stainless steel latch needles, and has been designed to be comfortable to hold for long periods of time. It has a lightly textured surface so it’s easy to grip.
The Original Cordsmith is a 'one size fits most' tool which works with fingering weight up to bulky.
Cordsmith Mini is specifically designed for lighter weight yarns from lace up to sport and results in a finer weight cord and sleeker bind offs compared to the Original.
Of course there is a little wiggle room with both and users are always trying something new, but, generally, these are safe guidelines!
The Color Options are as listed:
1- mercury
2- magenta
3- gold
4- teal
5- sage
6- navy
7- nebula
8- red
9- orange
10- yellow
11- green
12- light blue
13- dark blue
14- purple

Be patient! The first stitch or three can be a little finicky so don’t give up! I recommend using a yarn with a little bit of stretch to start and a heavier weight like DK or worsted for the Original and fingering for the Mini. Cotton or linen aren’t as easy for beginners, due to the lack of stretch, but can be used with practice. Novelty yarns like boucle, fur, or feathers are definitely are not beginner friendly. Slub yarn can be used with the Original but the slubs are too big for the Mini. When you’re working, keep your working yarn loose and it will be easier to pull your stitches up and over. Once you’ve got a few stitches you’ll have more of the cord to grab which makes things easier! With a little practice and patience you’ll be zooming along in no time!
