Top knit tip

To make a twisted cord, cut two strands of yarn three times the finished length. Knot at one end and twist until they kink. Fold in half so it twists back on itself. Knot to secure. For i-cord, cast stitches onto one dpn, then knit to end. Slide the stitches to the opposite end and pull the yarn from left to right to work the next row. Repeat to desired length.
