Designed by Autumn and her husband, this incredible tool is not only useful but accessible. It’s lightweight, designed to be able to be used left or right handed, has a texture on both sides that makes it easy to hold onto and is sized that small hands can grip it firming while hands with dexterity issues or conditions like arthritis can grasp and worked with a relaxed hand. It actually works better if you’re relaxed which means you can work longer without fatigue.
Cordsmith was designed out of a deep dislike of knitting i-cord while finding that most patterns we love incorporate it to some degree. Every stitch made with Cordsmith replaces three knit stitches and the time it takes to slide your stitches back to your working needle again. Yes, it's really that fast and it’s easy enough that kids can easily use it.
