Picot Stitch Tutorial
You can use them on a corner to get a nice pointy edge. You can use them as an edge for a bumpy border, or even inside of lace work for extra texture. There are so many things you can do with a picot.

I am just finishing up the owl basket as a gift for my daughter-in-law. First eye is perfect. But I cannot get the picot on the second eye to look right. I’ve started over several times. It just doesn’t look as good as the first eye. I just end up with a tiny bump and not a nice point like the first one. Help!!

Try turning the work before you make it so it will kind of point the opposite way. THat might make it point out further. Then turn it back to finish. 🙂

Deja, I love you.
Look at this bizarre description of a picot from my latest project:
Picot – Chain 3; insert hook between the front & back lps of previous st; yo & pull through all lps on hook.
I was cruising along and then, whoa! That’s not how I thought a picot worked! And then, Deja to the rescue! My project finished beautifully, with all the right bumps in all the right places.
Thanks for being my crochet hero.
