Fleece blankets 101

[frloplady]

How wide are you making your strips? I have one of those multi cutters I got at Joanns and it does a 1 inch strip.

[Peppermynthe]

Thank you. I was looking for a different, no-tie way to make these blankets! I would like to see what the finished blanket looks like, with the border. I was thinking about doing it in reverse, so the fringe shows the bottom color on top (not sure if that would work).

[corinne3sidney]

No, it does NOT fall apart in the wash. In fact the reason I make it this way is because it does not come "undone". Glad that you enjoyed it.

Hi. When u wash the blanket it doesn't fall apart ???

[drnugesan]

nice video! I really like the way it looks ! Can you please tell me how wide you make the strips? Are they 3 1/2 long? Thanks!!

Can you cut all the holes for the entire blanket first and go back and "knot" them. My Brownie troop will be making these blankets for a community project and I would like to have as much as possible prepared ahead of time. I do like this method. Looks more comfortable than the regular knot. Thanks

where is the biginning of the video that shows from start to finish i would love to make some throw blanket for my babies

[TheSunngoddess]

I love the method with the thingy ma jib!!!!

[gamerguy581]

it's called a seem ripper

[kaylhs]

@gamerguy581  it is seam not seem :)

[cabanaboi29]

love the border idea! and i have no idea what that tool is called either! ha! Thanks for the helpful suggestion !!

[corinne3sidney]

I make the fringe on my blankets 3 1/2 inches.

[keeziedm2]

Have a question about the fringe. HOW long is the fringe" Normal is 5" deep, but probably can cut shorter cause of not knotting.

[pphyllissable]

I love the look of this method better than any other out there! I do have one question though. If I were to make the slit a little further down on the "ribbons" or tags that have been cut, then make my loops, would this leave a little less pucker over all on the finished blanket? Thanks again for posting this video!!! Respectjully,,, oh and btw, this is my first post to anyone on youtube ever..

[corinne3sidney]

@pphyllissable I don't believe that it would look nice to cut farther down.

[Mochafairiemonster]

This is one of the nicer finishes to a blanket tat I've seen. I'm still going to do a zigzag stitch because I'm making them for my hard playing kids and they will be traveling blankets. Thank you for this video

[VeronicasCottage]

I love this technique. Thanks so much for posting the video!!

[TheLittlePurpleBow]

im lucky to have come acroos this video, cuz i looked around and i cant find another with this method, this edge is so much nicer than a tied edge because the other edge can look childish

[CodeViet13]

Is this type of blanket and the way it's made durable in the wash?

[corinne3sidney]

@CodeViet13

Absolutely!  Machine wash and then put it in the dryer.

[Pita1959]

Thank you so much for sharing I have been trying to find out how to do the fleece blanket this way. Thank you again

[t2ghost]

This method of tying the fabric is the best ! Your the best !!! I'm so glad I waited to make my blanket. The traditonal way of tying isn't as nice as your method! Now I can make beautiful blankets for family members......thank you so much!!! if you have any other wonderful ideas we would all love to see them & learn from them.

[marymarydee]

I love you!! This makes a wonderful edge.

[shadowvayne100]

did you still cut the corners off of these like the other ways show ?

[TheLittlePurpleBow]

@shadowvayne100 yes, as u saw in the begining, she already had a square cut out of the corner. the only difference is the tying part :)

[suzydo2bq]

I had a hard time getting the seam ripper to go through the fleece. Then when it did it cut too much. I enjoyed your video though. :)
