Or onto the front of a onesie?<br /><br />Also, do you need to pick-up stitches (or CO) the whole length of the item? Or can you cast on as you go?<br /><br />Thank you for your help.<br />-CarolMom7plusnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35689847.post-49133067004120225442012-01-13T05:43:26.929-06:002012-01-13T05:43:26.929-06:00Rowan All Seasons Cotton is similar to the Somoa.Rowan All Seasons Cotton is similar to the Somoa.Susan B.

I'm trying, but it just doesn't seem right. Could you post a video tutorial for that one, too, please?<br />I love the patterns in Itty Bitty Nursery.

I am so glad I can do this with knitting, since crochet intimidates me silly (sad but true) and I have an unfinished project hanging around waiting for a picot edge.

Nowadays, all I can find is the 'fold over' picot edging, where people do rows of St st, and then a YO row and then more rows, then they fold over the YO edge and it LOOKS like you did picot. My only problem with this is, unless you are working with a very fine yarn, the doubled edge looks heavy and thick on a sweater or sock. I really had to search to find someone who had the 'other' technique I had originally learned, where the picot is ONLY on the edge!!! Thanks for the help - I bookmarked your page to use over and over when I need a light picot, and not the folded kind (it just seems like more work to me and doesn't look as lacey)<BR/>Sincerely, Juliblue<BR/>PS I hope you did add a video of the crochet picot too!julibluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00088749468311349578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35689847.post-14476207891048711022007-10-22T07:55:00.000-05:002007-10-22T07:55:00.000-05:00It certainly did help me!!
