The pattern is inside the label of Red Heart Boutique Dash or follow along from start to finish with this video tutorial.  (Or this link here http://www.redheart.com/free-patterns/hand-crochet-cowl-0) Let's crochet!

I'm more of a beginner crochet person, in this video, and can do this easily.  The foundation row is a bit funny when starting, but once you get the hang of it you will be flying!  Have fun.

Picot-Boo! A Cowl for the Cold and a video release

Picot edge detail is so pretty I wanted it for my new cowl made on the Martha Stewart Knitting Loom.  But I've never seen this bind off done except knitting needles.  There is a technique to cast on a picot edge but not to cast off or bind off.  SO after I discovered how to do it I wanted to show my friends, YOU, how to make your own.  Below you'll see the cowl I made and the YouTube video on how to make it yourself.  The video is long and the process does take a few extra minutes but it worth it for the end result.  So sit back and learn how to loom knit the Picot Edge Bind Off with me.

Mini Picot-Boo Cowl. Very warm, not airy. Great for outdoors & a hood. Not for fashion indoors unless you are always the cold one!
