HOW TO MAKE FRINGE

To  give my purple patchwork throw a more contemporary feel, I decided to embellish it with purple fringe.  I sourced the internet for instructions on how to make fringe, below are a few photos of my results:

I decided how long I wanted my fringe

to be and made a pattern

anchoring the yarn with a piece of tape

I wrapped the yarn around the pattern 30 times-

and carefully removed it from the pattern

I tied a knot in the center with a piece of yarn
 approximately 6" and clipped both ends
 

approximately 1/4" down from the knot, wrap

another piece several times around the

folded yarn and tuck the end with a spot of

glue under the wrap

                    

 I hope you're inspired to add fringe to your next project!

Remember to be Kind.

My prayers go out to Charlotte, Virginia.
