the beauty of blocking. part 1.
Friday, January 17, 2020BEFORE.
Yes. This sweater came out way too small. It's too tight just about everywhere. But I wanted to remind you that beautiful things can happen when you block a sweater.
I have a super old cardboard blocking board that I purchased at a garage sale. I think I paid $1. Worth that and more as I have used it quite a few time to achieve a better fit.
I gave the sweater a quick hand wash, rung it gently in the sink and then rolled it in a towel. Stepped on it several times and did a little dance. Changed towels and repeated. I then stretched my sweater so that it would be about a 40"- 42" when it was finished drying. Pinned it in place to let it dry to those measurements. I tried it on this morning, and I can honestly say I love it!
I'll be back next week to show you the AFTER. 😊
Happy Weekend! Happy Knitting!
