A resilient pre-cut fibrous insulation blanket includes first and second insulation blankets. The blankets each have a first major surface with one or more longitudinally extending cuts in the surface that are spaced inwardly from lateral edges of the surface and spaced apart from each other. The cuts only partially sever the blankets to form separable connectors in the blankets that join adjacent blanket sections formed by the cuts. The first major surfaces of the blankets are bonded to each other, with the cuts in the major surfaces of the blankets aligned longitudinally, to form a batt with longitudinally extending batt sections joined by the separable connectors in the blankets whereby the batt can be handled as a unit or one or more batt sections can be separated from the remainder of the batt by hand to form a batt of lesser width.

1. A resilient pre-cut fibrous insulation batt, comprising:a first resilient fibrous insulation blanket; the first blanket having a length, a width and a thickness; the first blanket having first and second major surfaces extending the length and width of the first blanket; the first blanket having a longitudinally extending first cut in the first major surface of the first blanket; the first cut in the first blanket being spaced inwardly from lateral edges of the first major surface of the first blanket and only partially severing the first blanket longitudinally to form first separable connector means in the first blanket; the first separable connector means in the first blanket separably joining adjacent blanket sections formed by the first cut in the first blanket for handling but permitting the adjacent blanket sections to be separated from each other by hand; a second resilient fibrous insulation blanket; the second blanket having a length, a width and a thickness; the second blanket having first and second major surfaces extending the length and width of the second blanket; the second blanket having a longitudinally extending first cut in the first major surface of the second blanket; the first cut in the second blanket being spaced inwardly from lateral edges of the first major surface of the second blanket and only partially severing the second blanket longitudinally to form first separable connector means in the second blanket; the first separable connector means in the second blanket separably joining adjacent blanket sections formed by the first cut in the second blanket for handling but permitting the adjacent blanket sections in second blanket to be separated from each other by hand; and the first major surface of the second blanket being bonded to the first major surface of the first blanket with the longitudinally extending first cut of the second blanket substantially aligned with the longitudinally extending first cut of the first blanket to form a resilient pre-cut fibrous insulation batt having a length equal to the length of the blankets, a width equal to the width of the blankets, and a thickness equal to the combined thicknesses of the blankets; the resilient pre-cut fibrous insulation batt having longitudinally extending batt sections separably joined by the first separable connector means of the first and second blankets whereby the pre-cut fibrous insulation batt is handled as a unit to insulate a cavity having a width about equal to the width of the resilient pre-cut fibrous insulation batt or the adjacent batt sections are separated by hand to insulate a cavity having a lesser width than the resilient pre-cut fibrous insulation batt.
