Excellent! I am making throw blankets for my grandkids and here I found different fun alternatives! Thank you!

[@bettyb1313]

Please let me say THANK YOU! 28 years ago my son was born with multiple birth defects. You have no idea the comfort a blanket like that blanket brought to me during difficult time. I couldn't always hold him but I could cuddle the blanket, use it while pumping my milk, use it to comfort him with my scent on it etc. Your not just making a blanket your giving comfort and love to parents who have unsure future. I still have the blanket and gave it to his son my grandson.

[@terridavis9]

Beautiful blankets, I like how you showed the instructions several times so I don't have to re-watch the video. Thank you!

[@TS-tv2ik]

Thank you for the new technique. I really appreciate this video because I want the ends to lay down this time. I'm making a no-sew blanket for my deployed soldier. Blessings.

[@yamilethferreira]

Hello from Panama...greetings...I really liked the first and second...I'm going to make it for my three granddaughters...thank you...God bless you...greetings.

[@jillmicka5184]

You’re a great teacher! I’ve been looking for an activity with a purpose that my friend with moderate dementia, and arthritis can do together. Plus, I can work on this during dialysis.

[@heatherm9700]

Awesome video! I knew there had to be another way to knot it besides just tying it. Love the little written comments as I watched! Thank you for the quick corner instructions! Beautiful job! Thank you again!

[@JennyMarie03]

I used the loop-through method you taught for a blanket to give my mother, who is fighting pancreatic cancer. Thank you so much for teaching me how to do this. The finished product looks beautiful, and I can't wait to give it to her!

[@GammyHog]

You saved my sanity by showing me how to deal with the corners !!!!

[@lucyw.mcmellan7274]

I usually cut a 4"' or 5" square piece of paper and use it to cut all four corners before starting. Either way works though.

[@lindatucker4534]

Thanks for showing a variety of ways to do an old stand-by. Loved it!!

[@mommabearlisa4510]

I've JUST been thinking today that I wanted to actually make some cute throw pillows using one of these methods! Thanks for sharing!

[@davidmcqueen4184]

l just watched your videos and I'm going to try them out at my Kids Club meeting. The children like crafts and we are making these blankets for needy families, whom I know will appreciate and enjoy them. Thank you so much for your easy instructions !!!!

[@skyynichole-gass8342]

I just want to say THANK YOU!! Your video out of a MILLION other videos I have watched trying to see how to do this blanket, is absolutely the easiest and most useful one I have found! It’s stunningly beautiful to!! ❤ God bless you!!!!

[@cynthiabethuy4652]

YOU HAVE OPENED UP A WHOLE WORLD FOR ME. I AM IN A WHEELCHAIR DUE TO A STROKE AT 33. I HAVE SHAKINESS (ATAXIA) AND CANNOT DO MOST CRAFTS. YOUR TUTORIAL IS GREAT! YOU MAKE IT SOOOO EASY TO MAKE GIFTS OR DONATIONS. TY!! BUT I HAVE A QUESTION ON THE AMT. OF MATERIAL FOR A LARGER PERSON AND A TALL COLLEGE STUDENT. I BELIEVE I BUY 1 YARD OF EACH, FOR A CRIB SIZE, 2 YDS OF EA. FOR A CHILD SIZE, 3- ADULT SIZE AND IS IT 4 YDS OF EACH FOR A LARGER SIZE. IS THIS RIGHT? TY FOR HELPING ME FEEL PRODUCTIVE!

[@washurhands5079]

Cynthia Bethuy hi. Every video I’ve seen recommends two yards for adult size blankets. I don’t know if that helps. I have yet to try making a blanet

[@seasons0123]

A twin bed is 75 inches long. An X-long bed is 80 inches long. Find out which the College Student is in. Then add about 6 to 8 inches to replace the edges that are being cut to tie/knot Etc... That is how I do it. Oh though if you want to account for his tallness you will probably have to add more. Since you will want to go over his/her feet I forgot to and ours was to short .

[@MO99ish]

1 yard is plenty for crib size. 1.5 for a child under 4ft tall. If your making a throw for a tall man 2.5 yards is the length of a twin/full size bed. It would make a great throw that would cover his feet.

[@NKSPodcast]

I would recommend 3 yards , I am a basketball player and I make lots of blankets 3 yards is as big ass a full size bed with almost a yard left at the bottom if you are rapped in your blanket. 4 yards may be a bit much but at the end of the day if they are over 6 feet that might be best and safest so that it is not too small.😊☺️

[@TheSlipperyNUwUdle]

I know this comment is old, but anyone reading this now, making a 3 yard tie blanket is a nightmare and it’s just not worth it! Lol for an adult I would recommend two yards. I ended up giving away my 3 yard tie blanket to a friend cause I got so frustrated at folding it and carrying it. And it takes ages to tie all the little knots.

[@priziopriz]

Almost done with my blanket...just had to watch again to tackle those corners! I love it! Thanks so much for sharing!!!

[@BizzleBenzedrine]

I'm making a fleece tie blanket for the first time to send to my sister for Christmas. This was the most helpful and calm video I found. Your instructions were clear and your work is beautiful. Thank you for this awesome tutorial - I have more confidence in my ability to actually make this blanket properly now. :)

[@heatherm9700]

Agreed!!

I’m making a quilt!

[@bettinaeklund3408]

I tried combining 2 of your methods and loved the result. I did the pull through 3 times and then tied. It keeps the ties flatter but gives a nice braided edge look. I also used embroidery thread to tie throughout the middle of the blanket as you would a tie quilt. Thanks so much!!!

[@catblack4091]

Thanks for these ideas! I'm going to try them

[@littlejademoon]

Do you have a pic of the braiding look?

[@amandashanemecay4611]

Perfect tips for changing up the new sew throw projects. They are great activities for the “Silver Sewing” clubs at retirement homes and Assisted Living Centers. I plan to put the tips to good use! thanks!

[@nancyradford1513]

I have been making these type of blankets for new babies of friends and family members for years and everyone has LOVED them. My sister just asked me to make one for my elderly mother and I am going to try the new finish with the slits and slipping the fabric through. Thanks for the idea!

I love this video, I must have watched it five times already! Thanks again!!

[@cherylheidbreder2471]

Thank you I made the ones that tied for years but really didn’t like the messy knots . I stopped doing them . But now I’m going to start again love the scalloped edges. Thanks again

[@almacasiano]

New subbie here, I just found your channel and really like that you show there are so many ways to finish these easy no sew blankets, I'm a senior and sometimes need just a little extra something to grab to be warmer, You've made it so easy to follow making these blankets, Thank you so much !

I was just making a blanket and hated tying the knots . Came across your video to find an alternative way. I used your awesome technique. Thank you .

[@marlenealcombright2327]

Nice tutorial, wondering exactly what kind of scissors u used for the last blanket with the scalloped edges,pinking shears?

[@mrs.dr.spencerreid3992]

Thank you for your video!!! I was having a hard time with the corners of the fleece blankets I’ve been tying for years! They always look so funky until I learned from your video how to correctly make the corners! The pull-thru method is a great way to change things up!!

[@LilMansMom040506]

Thanks for the demonstration of the loop through method. My great nephew's baby blanket turned out perfect!

[@sandradensley834]

Thank You for showing how to make the fleece blanket, I learned something new. Going to make these for my grandkids!!!

[@kaylenerobbins669]

Great tutorial. I struggled with knots on my first one. Will try the slit method on my second one. Thank you

[@G-grandma_Army]

So happy I watched this. I bought material for 4 blankets... they can all be unique!

[@rtmckinney1]

For the yarn tasseled one, another option is the latch hook tool. A little less cumbersome than pulling the yarn through with your fingers. When I was a teenager, I used to make small pillows with novelty washcloths using the yarn tassels to hold the sides together. The latch hook tool would also serve to puncture the hole in the material. Just a thought... Great video!

[@leesteele8589]

Watching hers, it leaves an unfinished edge…

[@arizonamade17]

I love these ideas!! And they are definitely fun!! 😁😁

[@mskola86]

The patterns of these blankets are so fun!!

[@ettacombs2663]

Thank you for this video. All of the designs you provided are great! However, I love the looped fleece blanket. It fits perfectly with the fabrics my friend purchased for her son.

Curious how these wash

[@bd4loves750]

Thanks 😊 for idea 💡 love the cut slit design 😍

[@haileyedwards244]

Love the new methods! How well does the pull through method hold up to machine washing?

[@dawnhamilton907]

Hi Hailey, I made several of these blankets about 4 years ago and only used the pull thru method. They’ve all been washed several times and never had a issue. If one or 2 come unknotted or tied, simply just redo it.

[@marieb1751]

Thank you for the detailed video, I'm going to try the split-pull thru method!!

[@bethnegrey430]

This video is so well done! Thank you! I'm just beginning to try my hand at making no-sew fleece blankets and this is going to make me look like a seasoned pro!

[@benperea8483]

Thank you so much my mom is working on a blanket and she will really enjoy this

[@Darvit_Nu]

I love the tieing method that swaps the coordinating colors to the opposite side by threading them through the small snipped holes three times. I'm definitely using this for the Yule project I'm making for a gift :) thank you!

[@ndgBeautiful]

Thanks for showing these great ideas! You explained them vary well. I hope many more people will join the fun! ;)

[@prosperity.]

A "Latch Hook" would make adding tassels much easier. Beautiful work. Thank you

[@susansealy6825]

I love the blanket that you did not tie but cut a slit and pulled it thru. I was wondering how it holds up when washing it.

[@TheLillybugsmom]

I do the slot and pull it thru then do just one knot....I've had it come apart before if I didn't

[@suzaneekern-johnson8335]

@@TheLillybugsmom I would love to see what that looks like..

[@Swanky95472]

[@marigoldmaidens7262]

Both of my best friends have babies this year and this is a perfect idea for Christmas! Thank you!

[@lizhampton7914]

I like that look better than the knot. Does it stay together through washing and drying?

[@emilyykayyy]

I have my mother's birthday coming up and she loves homemade gifts. I think this will be perfect. I think I'm going to use the second method. Also, I plan to sew some letters into the blanket

Thank you for the information. I have never done one but I'm headed to JoAnns right now! Well maybe shop online.👍👍👍

@ Mary How do you make the Scalloped Edges ? Is that a certain Scissor ?

[@diannehoffman7726]

Thank you ❤ Making my first blanket and love these tutorials!

[@amandaklein4753]

Will the slip through method hold up in a washing machine? I love the idea of it and makes the blanket look so much neater.

[@KarenSVaughn]

When she did it twice I had the same question run through my mind. I think the 3 slip method would be secure. About to give it a try! 😉

[@amandaklein4753]

@@KarenSVaughn I did the e slip method on the top and bottom of the blanket and a flat knot on the sides to help it stay together if the top and bottom come apart

[@margaretford6145]

Thank you! I like the way you run the fringe pieces through each other. Do they stay together through wash and drying, and having kids use them? I've only ever done it the first way or by crocheting around the blanket.

[@AGirlandaGlueGun]

They stay together pretty good unless the kids are trying to undo it!

[@harrierette]

This was really great!! I’m going to try the tassle one for Veterans Hospital. Question. How does the yarn wash?

[@2DebbieDoo]

Hello and thanks for sharing this! I am going to try the band yarn on my blanket, can you tell me how you got the ends of the fringe to not unravel? Also, I am using two colors of yarn and wanted to twist them together. can i do that or will it just unravel? It doesn't lool like yours are knotted at the ends of each strand, but are they? Thanks SO much for any ideas. Take good care of you and yours.

[@jaynebookie5111]

2DebbieDoo Unfortunately the yarn will unravel.

[@sheilahusemoller7935]

Hi dear, I have made a croched baby blanket and have attached it to a fleece. I want to know when you cut the fleece, do you cut it a half inch bigger than the crochet? I'm going to use the method you showed on one layer of fleece that you cut notches and holes and then stick your hook in the hole and pull through the tassels.

[@lucyw.mcmellan7274]

I absolutely love the Loop Through Method and the Scallop Method. I just bought a piece of fleece 2 days ago, but now I will buy a backing to do one of those methods. And by the way, I am 60sh and never too old to learn. Thanks. 😊

[@flutterbydragonfly]

Hello! Thank you for this great video! Do the blankets that you snip and pull through hold up during washing and drying as well as the tie blankets?

[@erinrobinson6994]

I was wondering the same thing. If I am making it for someone, I don't want it to come apart the first time they wash it.

[@norniea]

I'm asking the same question & hoping someone answers. It appears the creator of this channel does not answer questions? Sad. :-(

[@jackifrench8902]

Someone else asked the same question and another person that made one using the pull thru method said they held up well when laundering 👍🏻
