- 1). Cut the two pieces of fleece to your desired size. If it is a baby blanket you should use one yard of fabric that is at least 40 inches wide. If it is an adult blanket you should use two yards of fleece that is at least 50 inches wide.
- 2). Lay one piece of fleece over the other so that the edges are lined up perfectly.
- 3). Cut out a paper square with sides the same size as your desired length of fringe. Four inches is a common fringe length.
- 4). Place the square on one of the corners of the laid out fleece so that two of its edges line up with the corner. Cut along the other edges of the square through both pieces of fleece. Repeat the step on all four corners.
- 5). Use the scissors to cut one-inch wide pieces of fringe that are the length you determined in step three. Continue around the entire blanket cutting through both pieces of fleece. Use a ruler to ensure that you are cutting the same length every time.
- 6). Starting at the upper left corner, make a knot using the first fringe from both the top and bottom fleece. Continue around the blanket until every piece of the top fringe is tied to the corresponding bottom fringe.
