Welcome to my small world! This I-cord is a tubular cord, hollow on the inside, approximately 7/9mm diameter and priced by the metre. The end will be neatly threaded in but can be cut and adjusted if you need to shorten the cord, you can then thread or use glue to close the ends nicely in place. You will receive the cord in one continuous piece if ordering more than 1 metres. For example, if you order 2 metres, you will receive a single piece of 2 metre knitted i-cord. if you order 8 metres, you will get one single piece of 8 meters. You can cut to the exact length you require and then sew the ends in neatly. This item is a knitted i-cord only. Wire is not included. Please note that due to individual settings on your phones/computers, there may be a slight difference in the accuracy of colour. I have tried to show the colours as clear as possible, so please look at the pictures as well as the videos. Any questions, please feel free to message me. Happy Crafting!
