How do you wash your handknit garments? How confident are you in your blocking skills?

Class begins with a basic tutorial on different types of fiber.

Options will be presented for laundering and blocking your handknit items. Information provided covers an array of tools and techniques including soaps, blocking pins and wires, and an interpretation of those cryptic laundry symbols.

Finally, you will participate in a hands-on demonstration that will open your eyes to the importance of blocking as part of the whole garment-making (or whatever-making) process.
