Blocking and Washing


The circle today is supposed to be a little cactus!  I'm not sure mine looks much like a cactus, but I like it anyway.😊

I finished my 4th block in my knitting class - thank heavens for YouTube!  Pictured below are the block, pre-blocked and after blocking.  I'm kind of torn whether I like the texture of the block before blocking better than after blocking.  It's kind of like washing a quilt.  Some people really like the puckery texture of a quilt post washing, I kind of like the just finished pre-washed look.  Either way, these knitted blocks need to be blocked because they are all going to be "sewn" together and need to be the same size!

Have a Happy Day!!❤️
