Make fringe by cutting 12 pieces of yarn, fold in half and using the eyelets made by the empty needle holes, slide a latch tool from the back side of the knitted fabric to pull the yarn strands through. Slide yarn tails through loop and pull. No need to do any finish on the long sides as it does not roll.
