This is so neat and by saying neat i mean "cool" idea and neat/clean border. I have made no sew blanket before using the "tie a knot" method which is good but this "looping" method is way better. Thanks to Barb of A Chelsea Morning for the tutorial. Check her blog HERE for the tutorials.
Materials needed:
2 - 2 yards of no fray fleece fabric- one patterned fleece and another one solid color to match your patterned fabric **
Ruler
Scissors for fabric ( must be sharp)
** You'll probably need 1 5/8 yards for a kid but I want extra fabric as allowance should you make a mistake.
*** I made this while watching a TV show...... yes it is that easy.
I made this for my adorable, beautiful great-niece ;)
Front of the blanket. Take note on how neat the knots are.
The back side of the blanket, still look so neat ;)
Loop the strands together
Then pull the "strands" as neatly and tight as you can to make a uniform, clean border.
Thank you for the loop-knot method, I will use this when I make one!
