Thank you! Thank YOU! THANK YOU!!! I've looked at a few different videos trying to figure this out & I just could not wrap my brain around it. Something about the way you explained it, finally made it click for me! Maybe it was the 4 different colors but always starting with black (or whichever one you started with first). Anyway, I'm using my kids old denim jeans to make dog toys for our 1 year old Boglen (Beagle / Boston Terrier mix). He's a sweetie, but my goodness he goes through store bought toys in an afternoon, even the ones that say their extra tuff & extra expensive $$$. I had a bunch of clothes to take to Goodwill & thought, hold up a second here, I bet I can make him some good toys out of these jeans!!! So here I am! 😂 Sorry for telling ya my life story, but I sure do appreciate the slowed down directions with the colorful fabric. Have a great day!!!

If anyone's ever been to 4-H camp or any kind of summer camp, and you had those plastic lace things I can't think of what they're called. But you learn how to do this not as a friendship bracelet with those things. So there's another way to do it as well

@renate19861958 11 ай бұрын

This was the only way I figured out how to do it. The video was for the volunteers in the rescue but it’s all over. And that’s cool. I’m not sure what those plastic things are you’re taking about? There’s that thing where the yarn goes up through the hole and your basically knitting? Good luck!😊

@abbeysnyder4173 Жыл бұрын

What a great, straight-forward, and easy to follow tutorial! Is the finished size of the toy similar to the length of fleece that you cut? I am interested in making this into a fleece leash tug toy for dog agility. I thought I could modify your tutorial to make it go over a leash, or use one strand of leash instead of fleece. Just wondering how long of strips I should cut for a 6ft leash. Thanks!

@renate19861958 Жыл бұрын

No. The one you see in the tutorial is 1” wide by 10” I believe. And I’ve done 2” by 20”. Sadly I’m not mathematical enough I figure ratios. So I experiment. About double the length of what you want the toy to end up being would be a good start?

This is great. Can you make a leash? Adding the clip and a handle? I can't find any place that show you how. I found leather and rope but not out of fleece.

@renate19861958 Жыл бұрын

Hmmm…I suppose you could. Not sure how to do the ends. The hardest part is how long 3 pieces of solid fleece strip you’d need. May be better off using three loooonnnggg lengths of rope. Then google knots (sailing sites) and find a knot that does what you want with the ends you are using. I imagine mountain climbing sites can help with that as well.

I would not cut the ends of the fleece but just fold them half when you are starting the toy - so make it out of two longer bits placed down in a "plus" as the start of the video showed... just fasten them together with a safety pin so they don't slip apart..... then instead of a knot on both ends you would have a knot on the finishing end and a loop on the starting end where you can then attach the keyring...

You can do what you like with the colors. It’s when you have patterns your looking for in the finished product that makes a difference. I used 4 colors to make it easier to see but when I use two, I make sure to braid it the same color order. If the pattern doesn’t matter, go crazy 😜 🤣👍
