Notes: 

The above measurments are w/o the 5" fringe on all sides.  This is woven and fringe tied while still on the loom.  When the blanket comes off the loom you only need to tie off the fringe attached to the front tie-on beam.  I also wove a small car blanket on the remanding warp.  Measurments to come.  Blanket was threaded 2 threads per dent based on 15 epi (so 30 threads per 1 inch ).  Worked best to wind double.  I doubled the height of the block to make them larger.  Make sure you have a strong thread to wrap your fringe around.  I used a shoe lace tied to back and front beams.  This is a Yarn Barn of Kansas pattern.
