Hello…I would like to crochet the White Fringe Cowl scarf that you have on display above this message. By any chance are you on You Tube showing how to get started with this pattern. I hope so, because I really learn better by on hands demonstrations. I just love your site here and on Pinterest. Hope you can help me get started. Thank you! Brenda
