Blocking Knit
Blocking is often a step in knitting that newbies like me skip, because we are either so excited to be done knitting we just want to wear it right now, or we didn’t know blocking was a thing! Well it’s absolutely a thing. It’s the process of wetting your finished garment and laying it flat while shaping it to dry, often slightly stretching it out to get the shape you intend.
I finished the shawl vest, my first knit garment piece for myself!
