Hi,
I’d definitely do a test in advance to double check the ideal length to cut the fringe – you may want to go a bit longer if you feel it’s challenging. But 3rd graders should be able to do this. Sometimes smaller fingers have an easier time getting in there to knot it.

I’m guessing from the comments below that they are not difficult to tie? The little strips look so tiny and there are so many of them to knot. 3rd grade students could do this?
I’m going to give it a try.
Thank you!

I made this pillow, really hard to tie those tiny little strips into a knot gonna try again, and make the slices thinner and longer and the heart needs to be bigger too. Cute idea though.

In reply to Beccie. Hi Beccie, yes, you do need to do square knots. You can cut it a little longer - fleece has stretch, so you can pull to help you knot.

This looks so fun that I’m going to do it with my granddaughter. However, when I was practicing, the 1 1/2 inch strips were hard to tie into a square knot (right over left, left over right), and the pictures you posted don’t really look like square knots. Did you just tie them once? Do they stay tied if you do that? Thanks!

In reply to Connie&John Rompelman. Trying to get my granddaughter into tying and this might do it...
