Used my icord maker to make a long cord, and picked up 120 stitches.

Knit 4 rows, did a vikkel braid, repeated, then stockinette until 8.75” long.

CDD over 10, every other row, last row ssk around.

Then I crocheted a band right above the icord, because it was still rolling.

To make for a larger head, 130 stitches would be needed.
