Blocking the Dragon Tailby ~GarnetKimzey

Artisan Crafts / Needlework / Knitting

Blocking the dragon tail scarf. I just laid it out, pinned all the points and steamed it. It's by far my most favoritest scarf, and the only I've made for myself.

I've never blocked my work before, do you have any advice?

Steam blocking is usually best, especially acrylics, but you can wet block stuff if you don't have access to a steamer. I definitely recommend getting some blocking wires and pins and something to pin your stuff to. Here's an article on blocking acrylic [link]. These same methods can be used for blocking most things.

Thanks for mentioning the pattern. I really have to try this, it looks totally awesome!
