Italian Trim Fringe
As seen on several of my Creative Sweatshirt Jackets - (Eve and Miriam and additional versions in my Book 2 and Celebration), this wonderful crimped trim is actually from the world of home decorating!
This fringe is discontinued by my present supplier - so I invested big time to have a supply of these great, available colors. I am searching for a new source.Â
Don't miss out on the available yardage!!! Â Â
sold in 1/2 yard increments!!! Example: Order quantity of 1 = 1/2 yard. Order quantity of 2 = 1 yard.
Be sure to select Color from Drop down menu!

It is a wonderful fringe - TWO WAYS
1. Simply zig zag down, then pull the 3 rows of controlling chain stitches and it 'explodes' into the wonderful trim you see at the right in the image.
2. Get DOUBLE yardage - by creating another heading, cutting in half for a trim that is more compact and less 'furry'. Â
     Follow these easy steps:
      A. Stitch down the edge opposite the heading with the triple straight stretch stitch, then also zig zag - you've created a new 'heading'
      B. Rotary cut in half between the remaining 2 rows of chain stitches
      C. Attach to your garment through the headings.
    D. Pull out remaining row of chain stitches.Â
  For example - on Miriam in the book - to completely go around the neckline, center front, and hemline of jacket and sleeves requires 4 yards - so using 'half' system you need only 2 yards!
                               - to go around the neckline center fronts, and sleeve edges requires 2.75 yards - so half that is = 1 3/8 yards - so get 1.5 to 'be safe'.Â
Yardage Guidelines: A Neckline requires 3/4 to 1 yard. Cuffs require 3/4 yard.  Eve in my Book 2 requires 4.5 yards (order quantity would be 9) which is THEN halved per the above directions to give the required yardage for the 'fur' collar.
