Blocking Services or Private Lessons

If you've ever finished knitting a lace shawl, you've likely noticed that it comes out looking a little wonky. Or maybe you knit a sweater and the hem didn't lay quite right. That's because knits need to be blocked to make them perfect. We offer a variety of blocking services to whip those knits into shape. You can take a blocking lesson from Susan, our blocking genius, or, if you don't have the time, drop off you're project and we'll block it for you. Whatever route you choose, we know you won't be disappointed.
