Whether you’re looking for a temporary stitches cord or a smooth strong cord for various knitting projects, nylon ravel cord is the perfect solution.
-
Provisional Cast On: Ravel cord is often used for provisional cast ons, where you need to keep the stitches “live” for later use. You knit a few rows with waste yarn, then one row with ravel cord before switching to your main yarn.
-
Ease of Removal: Because nylon ravel cord is slippery, it can be easily pulled out when no longer needed, making it ideal for temporary applications.
-
Durability: Nylon is durable and can be reused multiple times, unlike some other materials that might wear out quickly.
-
Versatility: It can also be used as a lifeline in complex patterns, helping to safeguard your work by holding stitches in place.
