Crochet Fake Picot Cast On:

This is a modified Crochet Cast on to add bumps kinda like a picot edging.

(Note: Crochet cast on is like creating a crochet chain with the knitting needle in the way)
Use 1 needle and a similar sized crochet hook
Make a slip knot, put it on the crochet hook
*Bring the working yarn around the knitting needle (creating one stitch), then catch the working yarn with the crochet hook, and bring the loop through the loop on the crochet hook (one stitch made)
After 3 stitches are created on the knitting needle, crochet chain 3. Repeat from * until all stitches are cast on.

Crochet Fake Picot Cast Off:
Using a crochet hook of a similar size to your knitting needle:
*Insert hook into first stitch as if to knit and draw one loop through, drop stitch off knitting needle. (1 stitch on crochet hook_
Insert hook into second stitch as if to knit and draw one loop through, drop stitch off knitting needle. (2 stitches on crochet hook)
Crochet through 2 stitches on crochet hook
After 3 stitches are cast off, chain 3, repeat from *
