    Pure genius!!! I made a lap-size granny square piece with 48 squares and didn't weave in ends along the way. I regretted it! I learned my lesson. Thanks for a great solution for other works!!!

    @TL Yarn Crafts • Toni: Kudos to you! Not only did you give very complete instructions, but you supplemented them with great camera work, well-lit, and close-up, but you also took the time to bring in the graphic of the S & Z twist yarns. Other UA-camrs just don't compare to you. Thanks so very much for sharing your knowledge and expertise with us. 👍
    Merry Christmas to you and yours. May you have a Happy, Healthy, and Prosperous New Year!

    I never made tassels before, but when I have a project that needs them, I am DEFINITELY using this technique! It looks SO much easier than other tutorials I've seen! You always come with the real tea, Toni!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
    I almost forgot! Happy Holidays!! 🎄🕎🎄🕎🎄🕎🎄

    @SusieQ3 9 місяців тому +10

    This actually solves multiple problems for me! I (along with everyone else, I'm sure) hate sewing in ends, but I also hate the look, feel and maintenance of loose fringe. This, however, looks great. It seems easy to take care of. It doesn't seem like it's going to come loose from the project any time soon, and it's not just loose pieces of yarn, but thick, soft, twisted tassles that won't get all tangled or tickle my arms 😂 I will definitely keep this in mind for my next multi colored blanket project!

    Hi Toni, I love your channel. I have a hack to make this process even quicker! Years ago, my young daughter wanted this Conair Quick Braid Tool for twisting hair. She lost interest in it within a week, then I saw how it worked, it does the same twisting for making tassels, but it’s battery operated. One year, I wove 30 dish towels for my quilting students and this tool made the tassels a breeze! I hope it helps!

  • @lesliehawkins3386
    @lesliehawkins3386 9 місяців тому +5

    Love this! Never tried to make tassels like this! I did something similar a long time ago... the pull rope dog toys with fabric scraps. They probably do better in the washing machine too!

  • @lesliehawkins3386
    @lesliehawkins3386 9 місяців тому +2

    🎉 can't wait until I get the happy place yarn! I've worked with 100% wool in the past, never tried any of the blended fibers before.... needless to say my new year's resolution is to rid myself of red heart. I'm just ready to explore this new world of fiber art!

    @titaniccookie7691 9 місяців тому +3

    Oh my goodness this is perfect! I do a lot of mosaic crochet and that has loose ends on every row! But this will make things so much easier! Normally the patterns call for a border that covers all those ends rather than weaving them in, or sewing fabric over it. But those ALSO take forever! Which was a main factor why I’ve never been brave enough to do a mosaic crochet blanket! I’m definitely going to do this so I can finally make the mosaic blanket of my dreams!

  • @grannym2880
    @grannym2880 9 місяців тому +3

    I've always done the fringe part when I know there's going to be lots of ends left over but the twist part?? Love that! Merry Christmas Toni to you and your loved ones. Stay safe. And Merry Christmas to all the viewers around the world. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺

    Thank you for sharing this! I’ve got a throw that I finished crocheting months ago. However it’s been sitting because I couldn’t decide what to do with the yarn at the end of each row since each row is a different color! Eek! Thank you for showing how to do this fringe!!

    Regarding fabric glue- I've a friend who is unable to sew. When I suggested fabric glue, she said she was warned against using it; it doesn't hold. Can anyone recommend a Really good one? Good enough to hold, say, a piece of fabric to a t-shirt so it's wearable & washable? Does that exist?

  • @precisiongrinder
    @precisiongrinder 8 місяців тому

    If you want tighter twists, roll your thumbs towards your index finger tip, over the yarns, as you’re twisting them together.
    Also, that “knot” at the top is so simple, but genius that my head hurts.

  • @dianapulido1807
    @dianapulido1807 8 місяців тому

    Thanks for the tip. My favorite blanket I had as a kid had tassels like this. It was a woven blanket and the tassels were shorter but I loved running my fingers through them. Now I'm thinking why haven't we thought of doing this before instead of being miserable about weaving in all the ends?!

  • @summerrayne42
    @summerrayne42 9 місяців тому

    This is a way cool trick that I need to try😀! I hope I’m ok sharing my trick that I learned, which is this. I learned, that when you are through with making a blanket or a scarf and you want to add tassels, but don’t want to do the cut and tie method, is to simply make a row of single crochets. Then when you are at the end of your row, to simply slip stitch into the first stitch, chain 15 or however long you want your tassels to be and then slip stitch in the chain stitches coming down. When you have reached the bottom, you slip stitch back into the same stitch to secure the tassel and you keep repeating the pattern all the way down the row😃! This method makes it to where your tassels won’t fray when you throw your item into the wash, and they are actually very cute! I made a blanket scarf and I used this tassel technique, and I’m in love!

    @king69777 8 місяців тому

    Hi I stumbled onto yr channel & noticed you twisted yr tassel's & they sorta came undone a bit. i will try & share with you a way that that twist will not come undone. As you twist over to the right, twist the yarn that's on the right, give that yarn a single twist towards the left yarn keeping a hold with your pointer finger and thumb, so it doesn't unravel. Each time, the left yarn comes over to the right side, you will give the right yarn a slight twist towards the left, keeping mind, not to let the yarn go. Once you are finished with the length you want, when you let go, it shouldn't unravel at all 😉 happy twisting!!
