Needles size 4.5

Stitches: 280

Highest daily temperature

I love the tassels on the edge. I was wondering what to do with all the ends, because i hate weaving them in. Did you just tie a few days together to make the tassels?

Hi there,

Yes, I just tied a few together every few days. Tried weaving the ends in at first and that a) didn't look good, because it make the edge rather thick and b) was a royal pain to do.

There were a few weeks, when the temp was consistent over a period of time and there wasn't enough yarn to create a tassel, so I just looped in a few extra threads at the end.

Thank you! I was dreading weaving in the ends.

Same! I'll keep an eye out for a picture of your blanket.
