I think it is safe to say that I will never willingly block lace without using blocking wires, ever again.
Here’s a close-up. I especially like the diamonds. I think I’m going to have to start looking for more knit lace patterns (where the patterning is on both sides; no purling back, unlike in lace knit patterns where the patterning is only one sided) because I love how much more delicate it appears.
That is absolutely gorgeous. I’ve got a couple of lace projects planned and I think blocking wires may be in my future, ’cause the string thing is getting mighty old.
Stunning! I’m still working up my courage. Have the lace yarn and needles but they both seem incredibly thin.
