You may look at this and say “that’s not the proper way to use blocking wires” but I say it’s a “crinkle edge technique!” . #cowl #knitting #knit #herringbone #herringbonestitch #ancientartsyarn #gildaofthesea #blocking #blockingwires #techniques #merinastrand #illblockhowiwant #allyouknitislove #knittersofinstagram #knittersofinsta #knittersofravelry

The banana laceweight yarn top is blocking! Trying out my new blocking wires for the first time. I'd already done a 3-needle cast-off to join the shoulders, then knitted the sleeves on from the top down, so just the sides left to seam afterwards #blockyourknits #blockingwires #knitting #knittingdesign #handknit #bananayarn #veganyarn #handdyed #topdownknitting (at Goonhavern)

#yarnlovechallengeday27 :: Blocking :: Not my favorite part of knitting to do, but TOTALLY worth it! Especially when knitting lace! This is a sample for a new lace Cowl pattern I'm working on. The yarn is #madelinetoshtoshmerinolight in the #clematis color way. As you can see, my #knitpicks #blockingmats and #tpins, and my #inspinity #lace #blockingwires are regularly put to good use! #sarahinskeepknits #sarahinskeepdesigns
