Dolly Quinn’s Imitation I-cord Bind Off
Otherwise known as the Chinese Waitress Bind Off! This bind-off is a nearly perfect match to the Chinese Waitress Cast-on, and I was incredibly happy to discover it.
Full credit for the invention of this goes to Dolly Quinn – please do view her more detailed video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgGSytb0MBU
Use it any time you want a stretchy, reversible bind-off, but especially if you pair it with the Chinese Waitress Cast-on.
