The Fiestaware Plate calls for an I-cord bind off. Having never done this technique before, I did a bit of searching to find directions. If you are like me, you learn best with visual directions.  Daughter #2 manned the camera ….

1. The stitches to be bound off are on the left needle
2. Cast on 3 stitches onto the left needle
3. *Knit 2, knit 3rd stitch together with next stitch from body, slip the 3 stitchess back onto left needle and repeat from *

I really like the detail of this bind off.  It is perfect for the plate edge, but it would make a great edging for anyone not knitting place settings!
