Materials:
- 1 1/2 yards print fleece
- 1 1/2 yards solid contrasting fleece
For a larger blanket, use two yards each of
the print and solid fleece.
1) Lay the two pieces of fleece out so that
the wrong sides are together (both right sides
are facing out) and the edges are even. If
the edges are not even, trim the larger piece of
fleece so that both pieces are even. Cut off the
selvage edge from the both pieces.
2) Cut out a 6" square from each corner.
On all four sides, cut slits all the way around
that are 6" deep and approximately 1 1/2" apart.
You should cut through both layers of fleece at
one time.
3) Cutting the slits in the edges makes
fringe. Since you cut through both layers
of fleece at the same time, the fringe will be
in pairs. Knot each pair in an overhand
knot*. The knot should be close to the
actual blanket. Continue knotting each of
the pairs all the way around.
*To tie an overhand knot, keep the two pieces
of fleece together (as it they were one piece)
and wrap them around your finger forming a loop.
Then, pass the ends through the loop you made
and pull taught.
