Episode 2: All About Blocking Nov 24, 2020

Show notes

Correction: we mention in this episode that Eucalan needs to be rinsed out. It doesn't - we were both misremembering. Sorry about that!

Today we talk about blocking your finished objects: what it is, how to do it, and how not to mess it up. Then get some suggestions for what to knit after your first sweater project.
