The June Taylor ruler works great but otherwise measure the length of what you want your fringe to be and then put a strip of masking tape along that line down the side of your fleece. Cut, remove the tape, and your fringe will be the exact length you want it.

Looks like a great idea! But I'm thinking I could tie a knot a whole lot faster than making sure I didn't make too big of a hole in that little strip! :)

Neat idea - thanks. last year, I made 2 Indian blankets for my DGS and just cut strips - looked OK, but like your idea.

The other thing I have done with tie blankets to shake up the process a bit is to sew the side seams, right sides together, turn right side out and then fringe the ends. I personally am a little tired of just fringing the whole darn blanket as I have seen this for so many years. Doing it this way makes for a little bit bigger blanket too as you are not using up so much fabric in the tying process. |
I am an animal lover, so thanks for donating those. Cats just love laying on fleece!

I'm busy cutting.almost ready to tie.

Like that idea! Think that would take less time than tying.
