listen, everyone tells you to block your work - I KNOW! I should’ve listened after years of crocheting but but buuuuuut I work with mostly acrylic blends so I thought it wouldn’t make much of a difference…

… and then I got a steamer and that shit changed my life forever 😭😭💞 my projects drape like they’ve never draped before and they’re WAY SOFTER!

don’t be lazy and ignorant like me - block that shit! 🤣

anyways this is a pattern test for @ivisambercrafts with @caronyarns blossom cake 💕💕💕

Sometimes I just wash and dry the garment and it works just as well as actual blocking

Do you pin it after steaming it or is it left to dry on the hanger? I've only blocked granny squares so far and have one of those peg boards to do so, and have been curious how to block something much bigger

have you ever partially blocked something? i made a dress that's near perfect, except for a super slight mismatch in the length of the two panels (front and back). i was thinking of blocking just the end to make it work...

I bought a steamer a while back... It's addicting. I'm blocking everything, even my daily clothes get steamed 😂

I’m scared to make wearables cause what if it’s too big after it gets blocked?

I have a hand steamer now so I may be tempted to actually block 🤣

I wanted to NOT believe in blocking until I tried it and saw the visible difference and how it sat on my body better
