Instructions
Gather Materials
Wash and dry your fabric pieces. Print out the tutorial instructions if you want to follow it, or you can follow the step-by-step tutorial below.
Trim the Edges
If the edges of your fleece have rough edges or salvage edges, trim them off  to create a clean starting point for your blanket. Repeat the trimming process for the second piece of fleece.
Lay the Fabrics Together
Place both pieces of fleece fabric on top of each other, with the right sides facing out. (This means that the bottom piece should have the good side of the fabric facing down and the top piece of fabric should have the good side facing up.) Smooth out any wrinkles to ensure even edges.
Cut the Corners
From each corner, cut out a square with sides measuring approximately 5 inches. This will be the fringe for tying the two layers together.
Create the Fringe
Starting from one side, cut strips along each side of the blanket, leaving the square corners intact. Make the strips about 1 to 1.5 inches wide and 5 inches deep. Repeat this process around the entire blanket.
Tie the Strips
Once you’ve created fringe along all sides, it’s time to tie the strips together. Take one strip from the top fabric and one from the bottom fabric. Tie them into a secure knot. Repeat this process for all the strips, working your way around the blanket.
Continue Tying
Continue tying the strips together until you’ve gone all the way around the blanket. As you tie, you’ll see the two layers coming together, creating a cozy and secure fringe.
And you’re done! You’ve made an awesome little blanket. I hope you enjoyed this No Sew Fleece Blanket Instructions PDF and that you found it helpful! Please let me know how it went in the comments below!
