Blocking Mats - Blue

Blocking gives your knitting and crochet projects a nice finishing touch. By blocking your finished project while it dries, you can ensure that it doesn’t lose its shape. This technique is especially recommended for projects knit with a hollow pattern like shawls, since it helps open up the pattern and enhance the beautiful structure. The set includes 9 mats, each measuring 32 cm (12.6 in). The mats connect like puzzle pieces to let you create the exact size and shape you need to block your project. The mats have a smooth surface and a good density, ensuring that your T-pins or blocking combs stay nice and secure during the blocking process. The mats have lines/squares printed on them as guides for those projects that need a little extra precision - like when you’re blocking several granny squares at once, and you want them all to be the same size. The blocking mats come in a cotton bag for easy transportation and storage. Use: Put the mats together in the shape needed to fit your project. Shape your damp, not wet, project on the mats into the desired shape. Use T-pins (not included) to keep the stretched shape. When your project is dry, remove it from the mats, and it’s ready to use.
