This is amazing and I can't wait to "knit" a winter hat! It will be fun to give a set of real hat and mittens to a nephew and the cookies to his mom and dad!

Thanks so much, Kay! I'm sure they'll be a winner !

"And that's all there is to it." !!  O my gosh Sonja, I'd be tangled in icing as I would be with yarn!

Developing this technique could only be accomplished by one who knits very well and is extremely dexterous with a piping cone.  You're amazing. 

i couldn't quite tell if you reversed  the direction of the second row even though you're not turning the cookie upside down. Does that make sense? Please, if it does, what can you tell me?

A very humbled, Pip

Hi, Pip! So nice to hear from you again . Missed you around here!

Thanks for your kind words! As for the direction of the second row: I'm not quite sure whether I understand, but I think you're talking about the second half of the stitches that I show in slow motion (every full stitch row is made of two separate rows). The first half is (for a right handed person) piped diagonally from top left to bottom right, and the second half from left bottom to top right. If this is not what you meant, just let me know !

Thanks again so much!!!

I went back and watched again and with your explanation and rewatching the video, I got it. :-)

Thanks for posting this video, Sonja. I think I might just give it a try. On the technical side, can you tell me where you mount your video camera? I want to record a video showing how I pipe lines but don't know where to mount my camera (phone). The view you show is perfect!

Christine,

I got the technique from http://cookieconnection.juliau...ino-of-emma-s-sweets. You mount the cam right in front of you facing down onto your work and flip the whole footage vertically once you edit the video. That way it will look like you tape over your shoulders. This can be done in Movie Maker. Don't know about other apps.

Can't wait to see how you pipe your lines !
