hello from france!
one video for this nice shrug?
what cast on would you recommend and my aio loom with extenders is only 106 pegs so I can’t do the 114 cast on for small.
What cast on method should be used?
Thanks.
I did the regular ewrap (but then I tightened it when I was done with the project).
can you make a video
