Owlie, they are beautiful and so nicely done!

That finish looks very interesting. How do you do it? I don't tie mine, I cut the strips, put a slash at the top, tuck both strips through it and pull. Looks good, holds up and easier than tying. I'd like to learn your method.

Very nice Owlie...I think you might have to do a tutorial on how to braid the blankets.

Here's a link to you tube showing how it's done.

Didn't work for me either!

I like the looks of the tying and braiding that you did owlvamp. The link that was posted didn't work for me either. I tried looking it up and I think maybe I have a little bit better idea than I did have of how to do this from the last site I looked at. If anyone else come up with something else to help understand it any better please post it. Here is the one site that made more sense to me than any(none had a video):

Neat idea! I may have to add this to my long list of projects I want to try :-)
