Chainette and French Twist Fringe

The chainette fringe you buy in fabric stores is thin,  generally what they call "2-end".   Mine is "4-end" which is twice as thick.    Considerable savings for twice the quality!

Top:  6" Off-White Rayon "French Twist" (supply limited)

Bottom:  Four-End (double thick)  6" Off-White Rayon Chainette Fringe

3" Off-White Rayon Chainette Fringe

 4" Off-White Rayon Chainette Fringe 

Note:  I personally prefer the 4-end Rayon Chainette.  The "French Twist" will eventually look like a "Bad-Hair Day"!   Both take dye beautifully.    Before dyeing, be sure to remove center row of stitching, or you'll end up with a streak through the center of your fringe.  Leave the bottom row of stitching in place until after it is dyed and applied to your lampshade, then trim it off.  If you prefer the looks of a tiny streak close to the bottom, you can just pull out the bottom stitching.  This streak is caused by the fact that the manufacturers use Polyester thread in the stitching, and Polyester does not accept the dye.
