I loved your tutorial Helen. It's the best I've ever seen demonstrating how to make cording. Now I'm definitely going to buy one of those little cording tools. Thank you so much!
Helen I am excited. Love the trees! I ordered the chart. I too want a forest. Great job. I couldn't be without my cording tool. Super happy you & your family are safe! Have a great week.
Thanks for the tip of doing the 'reverse' spin at the end. Makes perfect sense - I"ve struggled at times to get my cording to settle in evenly. Thanks!
Hi Helen, thank you for sharing how to make cording and attaching it to your small pillow. It all turned out so great and I'm looking forward to trying it.
Your instructions are great. I got the Kreinik cord maker and it worked. My biggest problem was my kitten, he found the floss just too tempting to stay away from. So frustrating. He a slow learner when thread is concerned.
Thanks, Helen, great tutorial. Love your using the 3M hook. I’ve been using the door knob and it is difficult to get it off the knob after it’s twisted. I have the plastic hooks, but I’ll look for the metal ones. Can’t wait for people to ask me why I have a hook on the wall!
I just did my first custom cord a couple weeks ago with the same tool and I definitely had room for improvement! I actually bought mine from Amazon. Next time I will be referring to this video for help!
Thank you for this tutorial ! I’ve tried doing cording once last year after your tutorial but now having this again I’m more excited to try it again ! I have the Krienik tool so it’s a future experiment!
Helen this brings back memories of my mother making cording for baby booties. She would wrap lengths of yarn around a kitchen cupboard door handle and stand back and use a pencil to twist and twist and then slide a coffee mug down the middle so it would twist. So fun watching the mug spin and spin. We would have to cut both ends to get it of the door handle and the mug off. This would be much faster. 😀
Well, look at that, that’s how you get them so even! I’ve only made two color cording once and just put all the colors together and started to twist. It looked ok, but not that great - thanks Helen!
This is great! Thank you for showing us this! Quick question: if I didn't want 2 colors in the cording, would the technique be the same? In other words, if I wanted just blue cording, would I cut the original 3 lengths of blue and the an additional 3 lengths of blue ( in place of the white) to make the cording? I hope that makes sense 😆
I actually did a second video showing how I sew cording onto pillows to hide the knot and have a clean finish. Is this what you're looking to do? ua-cam.com/video/hkZ2RJJVLoU/v-deo.htmlsi=4XI_iqx3d_ggp6nk

Great tutorial!! I've watched several, and this is definitely the best one for ease of understanding.
Thank you for this FABULOUS video. I made my first cording and it was so easy with your instructions!!
Thank you Helen for your wonderful tutorial. I really didn't know how to figure out how much floss to use. You are a god-send
Helen I am excited. Love the trees! I ordered the chart. I too want a forest. Great job. I couldn't be without my cording tool. Super happy you & your family are safe! Have a great week.
Thank you! You have demystified the cording process. Now off to my LNS!
Oh my gosh! You read my mind! I was just trying to figure out how to do this! thank you!
Great Video I learned this from Vonna years ago, great to see others using and making updated videos on how to make these cordings very helpful
Thanks for the tip of doing the 'reverse' spin at the end. Makes perfect sense - I"ve struggled at times to get my cording to settle in evenly. Thanks!
Thank you Helen for all your tutorials…now to find the cording tool…way to go❤
Hi Helen, thank you for sharing how to make cording and attaching it to your small pillow. It all turned out so great and I'm looking forward to trying it.
I’ve had that tool for years and couldn’t figure it out! Thanks so much for showing how it works. I think I can, I think I can!!
Oh boy! Now I will get out my corder and make me some cording!!!! Thank you Helen!!!
Had to look up spelling. Kreinik. THANK YOU, Helen!! You are brilliant🤩😎
Cool tool! I have done cording manually and with my son's drill, believe it or not!
A drill would be even more fun! :)
Love your tutorial videos. I learn so much. Getting ready to make/finish two small pillows. Keeping my fingers crossed
Your instructions are great. I got the Kreinik cord maker and it worked. My biggest problem was my kitten, he found the floss just too tempting to stay away from. So frustrating. He a slow learner when thread is concerned.
Loved your cording tutorial from November 2020. This tutorial is even better!
Thanks, Helen, great tutorial. Love your using the 3M hook. I’ve been using the door knob and it is difficult to get it off the knob after it’s twisted. I have the plastic hooks, but I’ll look for the metal ones. Can’t wait for people to ask me why I have a hook on the wall!
My hook has been there for years and no one's asked why! 🤣
@@helend.flosstube Maybe your family is not as nosy as mine!
Brilliant video, so clear and informative, thank you!
Thank you for your video I have had this gadget for years and never used it. I’ll be onto it now.😊🙌👍
Thank you Helen, I’m also living in the camp of I’d rather have enough then to little, great tutorial!!!!!! 💚
Thanks Helen, great tutorial, makes it sooooo easy.

That was an ingenious way of making cording! And what a great memory!
Amazing! Great tutorial Helen. I will now try cording. Thank you.
Helen, thank you for that. It's much appreciated 🙂
If you have a power drill use a cup hook for the bit.😊
Thank you Helen ! I have a couple pieces ready, have been waiting on your tutorial .
Thank you, very helpful :)
Thank you for the helpful tips! I'm struggling to visualize looping (?) the two colors together. Could you do a screen shot of the placement?
Thank You ;)
Thank you for another great tutorial!
Thank you for sharing your tutorial have a wonderful day 😊🧵🪡🤗
Well, look at that, that’s how you get them so even! I’ve only made two color cording once and just put all the colors together and started to twist. It looked ok, but not that great - thanks Helen!
This is fantastic!! Thank you
Thank you for another great tutorial 😊
Oh thank you so much! I have the spinner but the instructions just didn’t make sense to me!
Thank you so much for the great tips!

Yes, that's exactly what I do if I only want one color! 😊
Could you do a close up of your hook that is on the wall please and thank you
My hook is an older version of these. 😊
