Just a little tip: If you’re making this for someone who is 6’+ and they like their feet to be covered in the blanket, you gotta make it at least 2.5 yards. I made one that was 2 yards for my 6’4 boyfriend (perfect size for me but I’m 5’2) and it’s too short for him so I made him a new one that is literally nine feet long (3yds)
Very Nice, But I think I would cut only 2 inches , out of it for the fringe, because Otherwise it seems to make the blanket a lot smaller. & I made a Large one from Joanne's Fabrics I ended up Having it sewn all the way around, with no fringe at all, because I thought the person I was giving it too wouldn't want the fringe in their face. Nor would I want that for a baby , having fringe in their face. It's Very Cute With the Fringes but not always Practical
Thank you so much for this video! My bf and I made one together where we coordinated 2 fabrics that we liked. This was really to the point and honestly so fun and easy!
I am made many of these blankets for the Ronald mcdonald house children..And August 24th is my birthday and I want to celebrate it by making more blankets for the sick children. I love making them so very much. My boyfriend asked me to make one for his grandpa who is suffering with Dementia I told him that I am highly honored to make one for him....
I'm making blankets for my nieces and nephews I was thinking of going a little bigger when buying the fabric so as they grow they can still use their special blankets from aunty years later 😊 in total 8 blankets and the kids range in age from 2 to 14 so this should be fun lol
My aunt made me one of these when I was a child.. and I still have and cherish it. Wanting to make them for my nieces and nephews this year for Christmas ❤️
Thank you ~ your video was eas to follow and very helpful. Most of all, as a senior citizen, thank you for not talking way too fast like many young people do today. I appreciate your tutorial. :)
Took hours because, after washing the fleece, I had gotten the last of two different fleece designs and so had to tidy up the ends. Here’s final product. Gorgeous. Knots are a terrific way to avoid sewing. Didnt measure the strips but had measured cutting out the corners. Turns out beautiful. I think next time I’ll do six inch. Easier to get ahold to turn. Thx sooo much for sharing so clearly! Chose a green and black plaid for one side and a wonderful deer and moose and evergreen red and white other side.
So, six inches. Do you still cut the strips every 1 inch? In this video, they look REALLY close together. I've had fleece in my closet for at least 10 years and I'm finally retired and want to make a blanket for these old, cold bones. 😂
I buy four yards of fleece. Each side is a two yard panel. It makes a good size blanket for adults. Great gift for babies, they can still use it on their twin bed when they are teenagers or off to college. :)
I made one of these for my girlfriend a couple years ago for Christmas. She loves that thing. Doing it again these year. She won't mind, she loves things like this.
My daughter has one that she's got as a newborn 11 years ago. She loves that blankets lol.. now I'm watching ur video so she can make on herself. She's very crafty.
I made one with Day of The Dead theme skulls and black fabric on the back for my Dad who’s just getting out of jail, and doesn’t have much and his birthday is coming up. He loves my blankets I make and these are so fun, easy and customizable. Bought matching fabric for pillow for his new apartment!
My daughter has 2 sons. The oldest has an old buzz lightyear blanket. The baby loves Buzz and Micky Mouse. So I am going to use the old blanket on one side and new Micky material on the other. Hopefully it will be a great keepsake!!
My neighbors gave me an extra long 5:29 one six years ago! I have used it daily ever since! Washes and dries beautifully! It is the best gift I have ever had!
We make em in my FFA class to take them to the cancer center and our teacher usually lets us hand em out but due to covid the nurses are gonna hand em out to them for us.
I found two remnants at Joann for about $5 each and they were both just over 1.2 yards. One was cats, one was sushi, with contrasting blue backgrounds. It is a smaller blanket, but i love it! I mostly make them for my cat
thanks for reminding me how to do this, after many years since I made these needed to make one again for gift, and forgot about the corners!!! yea didn't start cutting yet, thanks again
Thank you so much! I found your tutorial straight to the point and a joy to watch. I sincerely appreciate you taking the time to teach me how to make a tie blanket ❤️❤️❤️❤️
My step-grandfathers (pregnant) cousin came over today to discuss her baby shower with my grandmother and they ended up just watching SVU and talking and sometime along the way she fell asleep covered by the blanket my grandmother made for my grandfather. Im planning on making her one of these to gift her for her babyshower.
Making a fleece doggie blanket and this was the best video on it! I made one a long time ago but needed a refresher. Your tying method looks much neater than mine was (but the dog never complained) 😂. Thanks!
Showing my niece who is 14 years old how to make this style blanket was a lot of fun for me she was real happy with the results now that is her to blanket while watching movies with her parents😊
You just gave me a great idea for family Christmas gifts! Thank you! Possibly after first of the year start making them for different organizations! I’m excited!
Thank you for your very clear, no blablabla style😄😉! I have small scraps of fleece and I’d like to make a blanket with no lining... could you please suggest a stitch to sew them together flat? 🤗🧵
I am making this blanket for craft night with my book club ladies and I am so excited. I do have one question though... do you need to wash your fleece before starting the prep work or do you wash it after you are complete??? Thanks 😊
Great tutorial, Thanks!--Our Boy Scout troop are making these fleece blankets for the homeless during COVID-19 to safely earn their Community Citizenship Merit Badges--Go Scouts!
Do you have any suggestions on how to avoid too much puckering? Also, despite meticulous measuring that both fabrics are the same size and shape, there appears a "loose" fabric in the middle of the blanket after you are done tying the knots. TY for a response.
Great tutorial! If you wanted to make it round or oval and stuff it for a dog bed, you wouldn't need to cut out anything, would you? I'm trying to picture it in my head and for some reasonI can't think of a reason why you would need to but I wouldn't have thought about cutting the corners out of a square or rectangle either. 🤷🤦
You wouldn't need to cut out corners, but the round edges will make your tabs wider at the top. To fix that, you'll need to cut out wedges like I did with the curves on this mermaid tail blanket: cutesycrafts.com/2018/11/no-sew-fleece-mermaid-tail-blanket-pattern.html
I used your video back in 2018 to help me make a fleece blanket for my soon arriving grandchild. I'm finally getting it loaded up to my Luvinsloth Craft site. May I please have your permission to add your TH-cam link to my directions. Since 2015 I have used dozens of your videos as well as your website. I'd greatly appreciate it if you would say yes.
@@CutesyCrafts TY, for your permission, I will send you the link when I'm through for final approval, I have gone to your site and grabbed your written directions and will add your name and link. I've used mamy of your patterns since 2015. You do great work. TY
There is different thickness of fleece. Make sure and pick the higher priced thicker fleece for a heavier blanket. The other option that might work is using 3 layers instead of two. If you try this I would cut your strips at least 6 inches (instead of 5) because it will give you more space to loop and knot the three strips at once which may be more challenging.
The corner you cut out disappears, since you’re tying knots up to each edge. The fringe starts on each side. I guess you could use the 5x5” scraps for other projects?
My mom bought be a bunch of sewing scissors for Christmas one year. They are all Gingher brand, and I love them! I think she got them off Amazon, but that was years ago before they started selling a lot of knock-offs. So just make sure to read the reviews if you buy from there.
Very nice, thank you! So, what size is the blanket prior to cutting the fringe? (I know it's a yard long but for the 2nd length, do you just leave it at whatever width the fabric is sold in or do you trim it down at all?) Thank you!
I plan to this soon, but do you need to make the square cut out on each corner? I only have 58" by 38" to use an I don't want to make it smaller than it already is.
great instructions exccept I don't understand what you mean near the beginning when you put the measurerer across the corner and you say to make sure you have whole numbers. do you mean that at 5" it should measurre in whole numbers? i understand why you would want whole numbers but I am not sure what it is that I am measuring at that point. Love these blankets and can't wait to make some,
When you cut the blanket's overall dimensions. That way, when you cut the fringe, you aren't left with like half an inch piece of fringe on the end. Make sense?
Could I use 1 piece of fleece fabric and one piece of let's say cotton fabric? So one side of the blanket is fleece and one side is cotton like a reversible blanket? Or would that not work?
You can't use cotton because it will fray. The only fabrics I can think of to use (other than fleece) are minky and jersey cotton (t-shirt fabric). Those might handle a bit differently (the t-shirt fabric would probably curl up), so you'd have to play around it. I'd probably pre-shrink if you're using two different types of fabric too. Just in case one kind shrinks more than the other.
What is the width sizes of the blanket material? Meaning how much fabric would I need to make child to adult size throw blanket? Hope you understand my question
I think the width of most fleece is 58 inches (at least the ones at my local store are). I would use 1 yard for a baby, 1 1/2 for a child, and 2 for an adult. The baby one, you might need to trim off some of it so you don't get a really long, skinny blanket.
I work at a fabric store average Fleece is 59 inch width and I usually get 2 yards which is 6 FT. Aka 72 inches or 2 yards! It helps for someone like me at 5”6’ to snuggle up.
Nicole Williams Are you trying to be rude?? My question was regarding the correct sizing width for each fabric which I now know is 60” inches, and yes watch the video.
How much does this take to make? Asking because I plan on making 6 for nieces and nephews for Christmas this year and need to know how much money I’m putting in
It depends on how much you buy your fleece for. The solid fleece is usually cheaper, so you can use a solid for one side of each blanket to keep costs down. Joanns usually has frequent sales (like right now they have a doorbuster sale for just 2.99 a yard for some of their fleece. That's a great price), or they always have 40% off coupons that you can get online. Only problem with coupons is that it's just for one cut of fabric. So if you did them all the same print, that would be worthwhile. Otherwise, you'd have to keep going back and using a coupon for each cut.
2 yards for a small adult you’ll want to get 2 and a half yards or so for around 6 foot adults because the 2 yards feels like less after cutting and doesn’t cover your feet like you need haha also look for technique where you cut a slit on each tassel and weave them through each other. Gives a nice braided look
Ok dumb question. The squares you cut out in each corner do you know those ? And if so how? You really didn't explain that. I was thinking of making a knotted blanket for a classmate of my son for her birthday in August. But have never made one before and wasn't sure how long it would take to make

You can do it either way. I usually don't wash it before because I feel like it lays flatter for cutting that way.

This tying technique will be simple for my students.
Are you able to put filling in the inside? Like fluff or?
Not for a no-sew. Batting would bunch up in the wash and go to one side of the blanket. Filling would come out of the blanket.
Why would you want or need any ? No 👎 if you did you would have to quilt or make ties with wool or embroidery 🧵 to secure so it does not shift
There is different thickness of fleece. Make sure and pick the higher priced thicker fleece for a heavier blanket. The other option that might work is using 3 layers instead of two. If you try this I would cut your strips at least 6 inches (instead of 5) because it will give you more space to loop and knot the three strips at once which may be more challenging.
thanks so much my daughter aubrees teacher love her blanket she made for her on her birthday
What do you do with the corners? What happens to them? I love this video though :)
The corner you cut out disappears, since you’re tying knots up to each edge. The fringe starts on each side. I guess you could use the 5x5” scraps for other projects?
Can you wash it after and will it make the knots fall out?
Yes, ours have been washed and dried and came out fine, with knots intact.
Super cute! Great gift idea! Question: What kind of scissors did you use? I need a new pair and yours seem very sharp!
My mom bought be a bunch of sewing scissors for Christmas one year. They are all Gingher brand, and I love them! I think she got them off Amazon, but that was years ago before they started selling a lot of knock-offs. So just make sure to read the reviews if you buy from there.

I plan to this soon, but do you need to make the square cut out on each corner? I only have 58" by 38" to use an I don't want to make it smaller than it already is.

Where did you buy the unicorn fleece. I love the pattern.
From Joann, but it looks like they don't have it anymore.
I made these for my bronze award project for Girl Scouts for shelter dogs.
Question: if you have 1 1/2 yards for a child, would the corners be 4 x 4?
I’m making these for probation ! Lol
Can this be made like this with the plush fleece as well?
Hi cutesy craft! Just wanted to say that trying to make this blanket made me suicidal. I’m not even done with side one yet. Great video!
Could I use 1 piece of fleece fabric and one piece of let's say cotton fabric? So one side of the blanket is fleece and one side is cotton like a reversible blanket? Or would that not work?
You can't use cotton because it will fray. The only fabrics I can think of to use (other than fleece) are minky and jersey cotton (t-shirt fabric).

Just in case one kind shrinks more than the other.
@@CutesyCrafts I thought the same about the fraying. I'll take a look and see what i can find. Thank you very much!
Why do you cut the 5x5 corners?
Hi in what stores can i find this type of fleece material?
Most any fabric store sells fleece. I usually go to Joann.
Im Algériens is beautiful ans good job , good like
Love it
What is the width sizes of the blanket material? Meaning how much fabric would I need to make child to adult size throw blanket? Hope you understand my question
I think the width of most fleece is 58 inches (at least the ones at my local store are). I would use 1 yard for a baby, 1 1/2 for a child, and 2 for an adult. The baby one, you might need to trim off some of it so you don't get a really long, skinny blanket.
Fleece is usually 50-60" wide
I work at a fabric store average Fleece is 59 inch width and I usually get 2 yards which is 6 FT. Aka 72 inches or 2 yards! It helps for someone like me at 5”6’ to snuggle up.
Do you just watch the video
Nicole Williams Are you trying to be rude?? My question was regarding the correct sizing width for each fabric which I now know is 60” inches, and yes watch the video.
How much does this take to make? Asking because I plan on making 6 for nieces and nephews for Christmas this year and need to know how much money I’m putting in
It depends on how much you buy your fleece for. The solid fleece is usually cheaper, so you can use a solid for one side of each blanket to keep costs down. Joanns usually has frequent sales (like right now they have a doorbuster sale for just 2.99 a yard for some of their fleece.

So if you did them all the same print, that would be worthwhile. Otherwise, you'd have to keep going back and using a coupon for each cut.
Would this work with any other fabric?
How do you tie the corners?
You cut the corners out completely
Question would a baby size blanket be the same as a toddler size? So 1yard of each coordinating fleece?
Yes, I think you could use the same. If you want them to be able to use it a little longer, then a yard and a half.
2 yards for a small adult you’ll want to get 2 and a half yards or so for around 6 foot adults because the 2 yards feels like less after cutting and doesn’t cover your feet like you need haha also look for technique where you cut a slit on each tassel and weave them through each other. Gives a nice braided look
Ok dumb question. The squares you cut out in each corner do you know those ? And if so how? You really didn't explain that. I was thinking of making a knotted blanket for a classmate of my son for her birthday in August. But have never made one before and wasn't sure how long it would take to make
making some mini ones for the local animal shelter ❤️
What are the squares for?
They are removed so the corners have clean ends. If the squares were to stay in place the strips would overlap each other.
Thank you
