fringie!

I finally finished my fringie! It was very time consuming. From cutting all the yarn - heck even getting the yarn untangled and cut to my specific size was tough! There has to be a trick to unraveling the yarn. The yarn that came in balls were super easy, but I got some that were in a big loop and man those were tricky.

Anyway I cut up 10 different colors of yarn and tied them on to a braided strip down the middle. I started tying on one at a time and then had a brilliant moment that I could tie on more than one at a time. Went a little faster then! And I bet if I wasn't 9 months pregnant it would have gone much faster too! Big bellies and sore hips hindered my progress some.

Anyway, here was my inspiration. I went online to buy one to find out they were 85 dollars!

Figured I could make my own for way cheaper! My pics should look better next time. Didn't realize my camera was set on florescent white balance. Oops.

My inspiration definitely has some more funky yarns but hey it's my first time! Plus I have no idea where you buy those funky yarns.
