She’s done!! Wet blocking is so fucking magical.


#adventures in knitting#I still think the fit is a bit funky#but it’s fine#now that it’s blocked it looks purposely oversized#still probably not going to knit any more lily kate france patterns tho#knitblr#I will continue to evangelize wetblocking until I die#that last pose is me trying to get the buttons out of the shadow of my camera lol#I wasn’t purposely recreating the before pic but it happened anyway

I've gotten extremely good at this over the years which is nice because reading bad posts from people I hate used to be like, mostly what I used the internet for. Now when I see a post on my dash from someone I hate I just scroll on past without even skimming it and this usually comes quite naturally with only a flicker of a temptation to peek at the post.
In my head I refer to this as "wetblocking" because it's kind of like blocking someone but using only my biological systems, ie my eyes and my scrolling hand. I don't really use the block function of websites and I think part of why I don't need it is that I have become so adept at wetblocking
i think it can be a really good idea to totally avoid reading bad posts from people you hate. just dont read them! if you follow someone who regularly shows you such posts, unfollow that person. reading bad posts from people you hate sucks!

As much as I wanted to try a new shape and pattern, I think the star was the better way to go in the end.

I have four balls of green alpaca left, each ball adds about 3.75 inches in length… I think I probably want to add another 6-8 inches but we’ll see. Would this sweater look weird if I added a hood?
#adventures in knitting#the aplaca will grow of course#I kind of hate the way this sits right now but I’m ignoring this#this is the kind of problem wetblocking fixes

My latest custom Etsy commission: an extra long shawl for a 65cm girl doll, which will reach the knees. I made this for someone with a wool allergy. 😊 I love doing custom orders and accommodating my customers the best I can. Please don't ever hesitate to send me a message and ask! 💖 (Yarn is @redheartyarns Unforgettable) #bjd #doll #miniature #shawl #crochet #crochetcreations #instacrochet #studiomiscast #etsy #commission #etsyorder #etsybjd #wetblocking #redheartyarn

This #reynashawl has been sitting in a bag complete and unblocked for a few months at least. Finally got the thing #wetblocked and pinned over the weekend. This yarn makes me #smile #guatamalanness by #meadowcroftdyeworks #merinowool #sockyarn #guyswhoknit #realmenknit #yarnwhore

Wet blocking a new project! I highly recommend using @eucalan for blocking — it’s amazing! When this dries, I’ll have a third Christmas gift completed! #wetblocking #knitstagram #eucalan #eucalanfan #eucalanwoolwash #christmasknitting
