Blocking Part 1! We got some questions last week about blocking so Allison is here with a quick overview of what you need to know about blocking your finished objects. Blocking helps to open up your work so you can see all your beautiful stitches and help your garments fit the way you want them to. The Yarnistas are always happy to answer your blocking questions, so stop by and have a chat if you need some guidance! #strucket #soakwash #soak #tuftwoolens #cocoknits #blockyourknits #knitblocking #sweaterblocking #knitpro #knitprotools #learnwithfibrespace #shopalxva #otboutiques
