How long should fringe be on a knitted scarf?

The length of your fringe is really a personal choice. I generally make my fringe tassels between 3 to 4 inches long for most scarves, shawls, and sweaters. If I use bulky or extra bulky yarn, I might make them 5 to 6 inches long. For pillows, I would suggest adding shorter tassels – 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 inches long.

How many strands of yarn do you need for a fringe?

Fringe can also be made of as many or as few strands of yarn as you like. Three strands are a nice minimal number for general use because they will create six strands hanging from each fringe group. You’ll also want to gauge this based on your yarn. Bulky yarns will create full tassels with just one or two strands.
