To people who are doubting if they should block their (crochet/knitting/lace/other fibercraft) work, here's my experience with a crochet doily (cotton, 1,75mm hook):

Just after I finished the piece, before blocking. It won't lie flat, it's stiff, and the edges curl over:

After soaking the doily in water and pinning it in shape (aka while blocking):

After the doily has been dried for +- 24 hours (untill thoroughly dry) and releashed from its prison:

The doily now lies completely flat and the pattern is way more defined (I stretched it quite a lot to open up the lace). It feels a lot more supple and drapes nicely over the arm of my reading chair.

I'm very happy with how this doily turned out, and I'm planning to make another doily in the same colours (different pattern though, which I still have to find). This pattern is called Moonpetals by Julia Hart, you can find it for free online!

Ps. find the mistake I made while crocheting :)
