How To Make Tassels And Attach Them To A Project

Adding Tassels To A Shawl

Dear Artsy Craftsy Friends ,

I decided to put together a few steps and instructions on how to make tassels and attach them to any type of shawl in a separate article rather then write them down in a pattern that can get lost in the dozens that I dream to write in the future . This is for a better management of this website . Also I believe that you will find my tips a lot easier while browsing around the instructions , articles and patterns . So let’s see how this is going to go .

Making the tassels and attaching them to a shawl or blanket is no longer my job now that I no longer see . Now it falls into my sister’s or mother’s attributions, who are of great help when it comes to such delicate issues , such as measuring , cutting , sewing and so on . I remember that making the tassels for a shawl wasn’t my favorite part in the crochet business even before the stroke . This is mostly because I was never able to get the tassels completely right . They were always too short and thick or far too long and thin . But crocheting over 50 shawls and 5 blankets in the last 2 years gave me , my sister and my mother the opportunity to find a formula to make these tassels to suit our taste . Please be advised that our taste may not be your taste at all . However , I am still writing a few tips if you wish to follow and learn from our experience . read more
