The reveal

So I've never really blocked lace before... I'm lazy and it seemed like an extra step for nothing - how much of a difference would it really make, right? No. It makes a HUGE difference. Here's the before:

So pretty! I'm getting close to being done with some lace and am dreading the blocking, but it will be worth it!!

I love blocking; it's so worth it and the results are always amazing. Large items can be a lot of work, I totally understand. The stole turned out great!

Great gifts for your bf too. :)
