How to Make Fleece Cut and Tie Blankets
I’ve been making these fleece cut and tie blankets for as long as I can remember being able to tie a knot. They are so simple and comfortable. You can find fleece fabric at most any fabric store and even at WalMart. Your fabric stores will likely have more patterns to choose from. I purchased my fabric from JoAnn Fabric for around $36 a blanket. This ends up being for 4 total yards of fabric, with each blanket being 2 yards each. I’d also recommend purchasing some fabric scissors or else this will take you much longer!
Step One: Lay one piece of your fleece fabric out in an open area so you can move around it. Place your second layer on top of and make sure you stretch it out so there are no lumps or “bubbles” in the fabric.
Step Two: I like to cut about an inch off of all the edges so that I am not working with any seams on the fabric.
Step Three: Start in one corner and cut between two to three-inch strips in the fabric, spacing them between 2 to 4 inches apart. This spacing is completely up to your preference. I like to cut between 10 and 15 strips at a time so I can sit and tie the fleece without moving back and forth.
Step Four: Tie your fleece strips into a double knot. If you want to have reversed fray on each side, make sure you are pulling the lower fabric around your while you are knotting (you can see this technique in our How to Make Fleece Cut and Tie Blankets)
Step Five: As you round the corners, work a foot or two ahead and then you will notice the blanket starts to bunch up, for this part you have to stretch and pull the last are tied. You will hear what sounds like a ripping noise, but do not worry – this is normal! You will repeat this on all the corners. You should also have a long strip on each corner, you can cut this piece off.
