Tools You’ll Need
- A printed design (to outline your pattern)
- Flexible aluminum wire (to shape the design)
- Scissors (for trimming)
- Pliers (for bending the wire)
- A crochet hook (for connecting the cords)
- Pre-knitted iCord strands (different colors to highlight various parts)
Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Shape the Aluminum Wire
Take the flexible aluminum wire and carefully bend it to match the outline of your printed design. This is a crucial step, as it determines the final structure of your piece.
Step 2: Connect Different iCord Strands
Use the Caydo iCord Knitting Machine to knit cords in different colors, then connect them using a crochet hook. Trim excess threads and secure the ends neatly. The i1 Pro Max kit includes a dual-use crochet tool for easy handling.
Step 3: Measure the Cord Length
Lay the knitted cord over the wire outline to measure the exact length needed for full coverage.
Step 4: Secure the Cord and Adjust the Shape
Thread the iCord strands through the wire and adjust them carefully to ensure a smooth and seamless fit.
