Ravelympics Day 6: I-cords
This little toy that I am making for the "Ravelympics" requires many knitted I-cords.
So that's what I was doing today. I-cords. And lots of them.
I-cord trivia: Do you know why they are called I-cords?
Answer: Elizabeth Zimmerman named these little knitted tubes "Idiot Cords" in honor of her accidental discovery of the simple technique. "I-cord" for short. :)
So there you have it... an idiotic mistake turned knitting invention!
