Blocking our Knitted Items

This past weekend a group of us gathered at Jackie's home for some lessons on blocking our knitted items.  (Thank you Jackie for opening your beautiful home to the group)

Items to be blocked ranged from lace shawls, a child's sweater, and sweater pieces.

Suzanne demonstrated steam blocking, wet blocking and spray blocking ~


































Lunch was potluck ~ deli sandwiches, pasta salad, salami rollups with cream cheese and pepperchinis followed by strawberry shortcake for dessert
