Kay's Crochet Edge Fleece Blade for Making Perfect Holes for Crochet Edge Projects

My niece, now a mother of 5 boys, had recently undergone the birth of twins after the conversation with her husband that they should try one more time for a girl.  You can imagine the shock and awe when she found she was having twins, boys no less.  <insert maniacal laughing here>

Since they were born so near Christmas, snugly blankets were requested and I set out to buy somewhat manly fleece, in which I decided a simple crochet edge would be appropriate.  

The chaos started when I sat down to cut tiny little holes, by hand, in the edge of the fleece, in which to stab my hook through to begin this endeavor.  Sadly, my cutting was much like a drunken sailor and, after a rousting bout of curse words, a declaration of, "There must be a better way!" was decided upon.  My Google search commenced.  

This item was perfect for what I needed. I had been trying unsuccessfully to poke holes in fleece to crochet a lace edge--impossible to get an even cut on my own. My freehand is far too free and artistic for the rigid constraints of fleece edging, obviously. I was thinking that a blade that was made for in a rotary cutter would be perfect and I was told by my more sew-savvy friends that such a thing existed, but what it was called...they had no clue.
Some very interesting google searches brought me here.

Now, I am aware as to how deeply sheltered I am, realizing far too late that this "wheel" invention has existed far longer than I could have imagined...

This little wonder invention fit perfectly in my Fiskars rotary cutters, it is super sharp and within a few minutes I had perfect, even holes, a modest 1/2 inch consistently from the edge of my blanket. I could have cried. Best thing ever! I'm absolutely certain, the babies who received such perfect blanket edging will grow up to be life-saving doctors and Pro bono lawyers now...
