This is a video of me blocking my Wendy Johnson Summer Mystery Shawlette. It was created primarily for a friend of mine but I'm sharing it with everyone. It was my first time trying to do an "action" video so please forgive the technical difficulties with the sound

Links to products:
- GetRung floor mats
- Knit Picks Blocking Mats Not shown but I have these too. They are 1'x1' mats in a set of 9 that are very good too.
- Lace Blocking Wires from Knit Picks
- T-Pins from Knit Picks warning these are a pain to open the first time, but I like them, I like the case, it doesn't pop open when thrown in a drawer or a bag
- Soak Traveling sample case from Knit Picks you can get Soak in lots of places but if you are placing a Knit Picks order for wires and t-pins, this is a good way to try out several.

cute wittle Missy Kitty!
Actually cept for no sound in the first part - the video thing I believe was a success!
Thanks very much Vicki, this was really helpful! I have only blocked a couple of shawls with no ryhme or reason. It is wonderful to see the logical way you did it.
:)
Thanks for this Vicki! It looks wonderful!
i loved this thanks so much for going thru the trouble to film it! i found it very informative since i have never knit a lace thing to block yet but am close!
hmm i just wonder if i should get some wires or deal with 10x more pins?
