Socking Making Tool

Look what I have brought for my sock making projects.


These are sock blockers!  
Once I have completed crocheting a pair of socks to make them look like a professional-looking piece of perfection, (LOL) I will block them into shape.  Blocking can be done with water, steam or heat from an iron.  I like to block using  lukewarm water and air drying.  I have read many opinions on blocking acrylic yarn.  Some state there is no need but I agree with those that state it gives your project a nicer finished look. Never use heat from an iron on acrylic yarn because it will go very limp or worse melt! Oh, I brought my blockers from www.KnitPicks.com.  Chat Later.
