Blocked Kaytie's hat yesterday while waiting for the technician and its completely dry now. Before blocking, the hat was stiff and a weird shape, now it all drapey and the lace and cables really shine. Blocking, its important my friends.

Ps. The pictures with Mr. Llama are the most accurate in color representation.
Images description: 1st image is of a dark marbled green handknitted beanie, with a lace and cable pattern stretched over an inflated yellow balloon. The hat and balloon sit in a blue mug to keep upright.
2nd image: a close up of the beanie's, showing the snowflake like pattern.
Images 3-5 : pictures of that hat being worn by a pink alpaca plushie in various angles and close ups. The alpaca's name is Mr. Llama.
