Joyce,
In the treat bag class a crocheted chain stitch was suggested for the
handle and this is what I used and it looked good. Had some weight in the
bottom of the bag too to get it to hang nice.

Opinions please: Do you think a thick yarn will be good enough to stand up
for a draw string replacement? I like the idea of just cutting a piece of
yarn and not fussing with doing other things to make this.

Ohio,
I just read a pattern for an i-chord that said to chain 4 and then single
crochet back and forth. On the Halloween Treat Bag we made, it uses a
drawstring to close it up. Now that they have bulky yarn, I chose just to
use it as my drawstring, but you could use an i-chord.

Hi all,
I am reviewing older posts, so much information to remember! anyhow in a
message awhile back Theresa wrote:
"I make the I cord on any loom. You just need two pegs and an anchor peg.
You use a version of the e wrap and you just keep knitting off..the cord
will form towards the middle and you decide how long."
questions: what can be made using the I-cord? Has this group ever had a
class to make something with I-cord? Would someone be willing to teach it
in the future? other than making handles for things, I have not heard much
about what can be made from I-cord. I was wondering if perhaps a basket
could be made from I-cord? Maybe a plant hanger?
Does anyone know where patterns for I-cord projects can be found?
Ohio
