Abstract of the Disclosure This invention is directed to a window shade assembly whose width can be decreased, without cutting instruments, to conform to the size of the window opening into which the shade assembly is to be mounted. The window shade assembly includes a roller and a sheet of shade material secured to the roller having at one or both edges perpendicular to the roller a plurality of spaced strip lines, preferably invisible, extending from end-to-end parallel to the sheet edges. The strip lines permit hand-stripping of discrete widths of the sheet while the sheet is rolled on the roller. The roller includes, substantially coincident with the strip lines of the sheet, a plurality of longitudinally spaced, circumferentially extending strip lines permitting removal of a corresponding discrete length of the roller. In accordance with the invention disclosed, the shade assembly can be conveniently shortened by the consumer in the home, without the need for cutting of the shade assembly, thus eliminating the need for cutting machines.
