When I'm making I-cord I find there is one stitch on the cord that is looser than the other stitches in the row. How do you get even stitches all around?
Thanks!

I walked into a craft fair once with my ex. After being with me for a while I was so proud of him when he noticed someone demonstrating the making of I-cord and he said, "I-cord!"
I have that problem too, but never searched for a solution. Sometimes I think I should get a wooden thread spool and put nails on it. I can't remember the name of it, but it makes fabulous cords. Oooh, it's a Knitting nancy or a spool knitter!
Think they call them French Knitters and knitting nobbies, too. I would do that, but the hat I'm making begins with I-cord then continues to have I-cord edges. So I figure I'd better just find some

Have you tried knitting the last stitch tbl? it gives a more direct path back to the first stitch... ...
Thank you, Lucy! That did the trick along with a slight tug after each row. Now to see if it helps when I try to work i cord borders on the body of the hat!
