Finishing
Fasten off all colors. Weave in all ends using a yarn needle to ensure a clean finish.
Adding the Fringe
- Cut strands of Color A, B, and C, each approximately 12 inches long. You will need about 42 strands total (14 of each color).
- Fold each strand in half. Insert the folded end through a stitch along the bottom edge of the wall hanging, from front to back. Pull the loose ends through the loop and tighten to form a knot.
- Attach fringe to every other stitch along the bottom edge, alternating colors as desired for a balanced look.
- Trim the fringe evenly to your preferred length (e.g., 4-5 inches) for a neat finish.
Hanging Your Wall Hanging
To hang, you can sew a fabric loop or a wooden dowel to the top edge. Alternatively, crochet a simple chain loop at each top corner for easy hanging on a nail or hook.
