Blocking...

There’s a lot of it to do. :-D Since Monday’s post I’ve added another finished cardigan and a boring but useful tension swatch and finally it’s all laying out to dry on copious carrier bags. I washed them all in a few sample sachets of Soak that I bought from The Little Knitting Company. Like Eucalan, it’s no-rinse, which I like as it appeals to my lazy side. I should have known not to try any of the scented versions, though, as I now have a headache from the aquae scent, and the citrus one smells like loo cleaner… I do like the unscented one, though, so will probably buy a large bottle of it, and it only needs a tiny amount each time, so it’ll be pretty economical.

Now to keep small people and cats away from it all ’til it’s dry!

  1. Love the colours of the baby things – I’m quite jealous! :)

  2. Scents made me nauseous when pregnant too – hated getting the bus/train in the morning when everyone had freshly applied their perfumes and aftershaves. Yuck!
    Gorgeous knitting, what a lucky wee lassie you’re going to have.

  3. I wish I were as productive as you.

    Those Tomten colours are amazing!
