Step 1: Cut fleece

Cut two pieces of fleece to desired size for your needs. Ideal size is 60”W x 70”L (152cm x 178cm). Remember to remove salvage edge on fleece before measuring out your final pieces. Fleece can be the same on both sides or you can coordinate a solid with a print. Be creative!

Step 2: Cut edge strips

With wrong sides together, right sides facing out, align fleece. Cut a 3” x 3” (7.5cm x 7.5cm) square from each of the four corners. Cut 3” (7.5cm) long stripes around all edges, at 1” (2.5cm) intervals. Strip length can be as long as 5” (13cm) if you desire longer ties. Cut 5” x 5” (13cm x 13cm) corner squares if you chose to cute longer strips.

Step 3: Knot edge strips

While keeping fleece pieces aligned, double knot one strip from the top row to the corresponding strip on the bottom row. Do this along all edges.

You’re done! Enjoy snuggling with your new blanket or give it to your bestie …then make another!

For Optional Cushion Cover:

Add a pillow form before knotting the fleece strips together. Ensure fleece is a sufficient size to cover the pillow form when strips are cut and tied.
