Blocking wires are a fabulous way to finish many knitted pieces and is especially helpful with lace work. The wires are threaded through the edges of the piece providing straight lines and the ability to open up intricate lace designs along scalloped and pointed edges.
They are readily available at local yarn shops and from many online retailers.
Can you tell me where you obtain the blocking pads and wires?
Thank you very much for posting about using blocking wires. It is an essential video to watch prior to blocking a project.
I find there is always something new to learn in knitting!
Ireally learned a lot from this video (using blocking wires). I have blocking wires and have used them but found that I was not using them properly.
Thank you so much.
