New Term- Placement Term

Thursday 3rd January 2013 (POSTED A DAY LATE)

Today I Learnt how to use  steam blocking to shape finished knitted panels.

To those that do not know what Steam blocking is.

The process of blocking panels/Fabric to a flat smooth surface using pins and a steam iron to smooth out creases, bumps, relief and shape delicate knitting or crochet.


The Peak of the day was how many i knitted pieces that i steamed and also that Alice was happy with the standards on completion.



The Pitt of the day, I ended up with really bad backache from standing all day ( I suffer from backaches regularly).

I will update this post in a few days to add photo's demonstrating the steam blocking method.
