It’s really warm and dry today so I guess it’s scarf washing and lace reblocking day.

Here’s why it’s a good idea to always gently re-block your lace shawls after washing:

The same light blue handknit lace shawl, draped over a dark blue sofa for display. It is freshly washed and blocked, and its shape is far better defined and symmetrical and the stitch pattern very clear. It has grown a little bit.ALT

Lace loses its definition after some time, the stitches pull close and the whole shawl basically shrinks a bit and distorts. Washing and blocking will open up the stitches again and you can pull them back into the shape they’re supposed to have. I found that washing my lace about once a year is enough, as the shawls don’t really get dirty with wear, and fewer washes are better when it comes to handspun yarn.

 From this cute yarn came these socks. That lace pattern would probably look better with a unicolour

Fromthis cute yarn came these socks. That lace pattern would probably look better with a unicolour yarn, but it’s cute anyway. Spring socks, definitely!

Love the lacy leaves! These would be awesome in a green or brown heather.  https://www.etsy.com/listing/1059394640/knitting-pattern-for-fingerless-mitts

Once again providing enrichment for the spider brain. Scallops are tricky. These will end up being subtle but oh well. The rest of this one is going to be amazing.

Please ignore my shoes in the corner.

Your blocking method is feral and i love it.

And that shawl is AMAZING!!!
