On the Fringe

Yes indeed, more fringe... and this one is another DIY special.  This is a great way to update a sweater you already own or have a little fun with something from the consignment or vintage shop.  The best part is (aside from the actual fringe!), this is a non-destructive process, meaning you can remove the fringe at any time and you still have your original garment in tact.  Try it out, what's to lose?  And don't forget, sometimes the best patterns are on the inside of the garment so,...don't be shy, flip it inside out, remove the labels and off you go.

Similar yarns for fringe:  Malabrigo Rastita Space Dyed Wool Yarn, similar Noro Kureyon Space Dyed Yarn or Wisdom Yarns Space Dyed Wool Blend Yarn (Less than one skein needed.  Measure desired length of fringe, multiply that length by 2 and add 1 more inch, this is the length of yarn you will need for each fringe.  Latch hooks and latch hook illustrated instructions.)
