For the Love of Blocking

I am going mad for this blocking business!  It makes the shawls look so much better - entirely different, almost.

Here's some I made earlier but have only just blocked...

Brown multi
Wildflower Shawl - free pattern by Posh Yarns

Brown multi, close
Crochet edging my own design


...and a Holden Shawlette (there will be more of these)...

I just love the difference that blocking makes!

I've never blocked anything I've made but I can see what a difference it makes. These look really stunning. Do you use them yourself or sell them?

I think blocking is key and always block -- after all, we devote so much love and time into our knitted objects that blocking is the finishing touch! Your shawls are stunning.
