Decide what size you want your napkins to be, and then cut squares one inch larger. I cut my squares 20 inches on each side, so my napkins are about 19 inches square.

Starting on one side of the first square, start pulling threads along the edge. Linen ravels quite easily, so it won’t be hard.

Pull enough complete threads so your fringe is at least 1/4 inch wide. I pulled 10 threads per side.

When all the sides on each napkin are fringed, it’s time to wash and dry them. When they come out of the washer, there will be a lot of stray strings. This is normal, and actually what you want!
