Blocking Ruffle - confessions of a Beginner Babe
Hello, My name is Knottie Knitter....and I don't know how to block....*gasp*....*weep*.
I just bought the Classic Elite Premium for Ruffles, and after reading the pattern, I realized that...I DONT KNOW HOW TO BLOCK!!!
After further investigation (via the knit-ernet) I realized that EVERYONE blocks EVERY project....AAAUUGGHH.....this raises some very important questions:
1. what have I been missing??
2. how the heck do i do this??
3. what does designer kate mean by "light blocking" for ruffles?????
HELP PLEASE!!!

I made two Ruffles, and I didn't block either of them ... but if you wanted to get them nice and wet and then hang them on something, that might help to stretch them out (if you want that). :) Jenifer http://knittingat5337.blogdrive.com
