Blocking rocks my socks . . .
Wow!
First of all, I am so proud. I have knit lace!
It's part of a surprise blanket. There are a number of us each doing squares.
But check it out... this is before I blocked it:
And this is while it's blocking:
And just because you need a close-up:
Oh yes. I am proud.

It's always fun to watch the magic of blocking lace. It looks great Linz. :)
Aw, thanks!
I am highly impressed... if I do say so myself ;)
By the way, I was thinking of using your hibiscus wool/silk for elegant wrist-warmers. What do you think?
