Blocking ToolsUpdated 6 months ago

• Blocking Mats: Foam or felt mats provide a clean surface for blocking and can be easily pinned into.
• Rust-Proof Pins: Use T-pins or blocking pins to secure the fabric without staining.
• Blocking Wires: Threaded through edges, blocking wires help create straight lines on scarves, shawls, and garments, especially useful for lace.

Tip: Block your swatch the same way you’ll block your final project, as blocking can alter gauge, especially with natural fibers.
