Here's a quick video showing how to knit the Icelandic Bind Off. This bind off goes very well with a garter stitch because it has a purl bump edge.
I paired it with an Old Norwegian Cast On (I showed this in another video) to make the edge on my free knit blanket pattern, Kisses and Hugs Reversible Blanket.
Have you used this bind off?We'd love it if you share your project photos in the comments below.
This is a quick and efficient bind-off, good for intermediate knitters. It is one of the the stretchiest of the standard bind-offs.
Although I like using this bind-off with the garter stitch, it goes well with nearly any stitch pattern. For instance, when used with stockinette stitch it provides a nice rolled edge.

Do you feel lost when it comes to picking out your first knit sweater pattern? This week, Kelley shared her favorite sweater patterns during Technique Tuesday. These patterns all feature minimal seaming, have detailed instructions, and have lots of completed projects on Ravelry!
Kelley has knit the Brick Sweater several times, and has decided to knit it again with all our Technique Tuesday viewers! Grab some worsted weight yarn and join us for this informal knit along.

I liked the video.You did explain nicely,but your hand where on the way…. It was not very visible and the yarn color didn’t help. Also you went too fast!!
I understood how to do the bind off, but it was not easy to see what you were doing.
Thanks any way.
