How to Make an Easy Blanket
Purchase a yard or two of fleece material at a craft store. It helps if you measure the couch, bed or chair where you will be putting the blanket. Fleece is nice and warm and can easily be washed. Buy a pattern or color that matches your decor.
Use measuring tape to determine how long and wide you want it. Trace the lines with chalk and use scissors to cut it out on these lines.
On each edge of the fleece blanket, use your measuring tape and chalk to mark strips that are three to four inches long and one inch wide. You should have an even number of strips on each side. Once you cut out the strips, it will look like you have fringes on the edges of the blanket.
Tie two strips together by making a knot. Do this to all of the strips.
