These blocking mats are AWESOME!

I’m fairly new to the crocheting world, and I knew eventually I would run into the issue that I would have to block my work. I had finished 3 projects (a small bag for my crochet hooks, needles, scissors, and yarn, a blanket, and an afghan) that didn’t need to be blocked. And then I started doing granny squares and realized it wasn’t going to be as easy as the other things I had completed. I did not have any idea how I was going to block them because I did not have the right equipment, per se…

Pros
  • perfect for all of my projects
Cons
  • The grid lines may fade over time

Transfers dye and strong smell

Upon opening, I was immediately hit with a strong chemical smell. I was worried it would seep into my project so wiped it down with a wet cloth. Turned out to be a good thing I did that rather than just let it air out because the cloth picked up the blue dye used to mark the mats. The smell did not dissipate before I needed to use it and I ended up putting parchment down to try to prevent the dye getting on my project. That seemed to work but really if I have to worry about that, I’d just as…

Pros
  • The set offers a useful and convenient storage solution for t-pins and other knitting accessories
Cons
  • The pins may be too thick or too thin for certain fabrics

Convienient and well made

I really like that these came in their own zip container and they are very easy to use, interconnect nicely, and hold up well under a lot of use.

Pros
  • The mats are ideal for use by knitting groups, crafting circles, and other sewing groups
Cons
  • The grid lines may be too light or too dark

Best for Blocking! in my review

Best board for blocking handmade doilies! Tiny pins to block go all the way through board. Board is "forgiving". Pieces interlock perfectly so all measuring squares are even. I needed one of these years ago. Highly recommend!

Pros
  • The clear grids provide an excellent reference for knitting lessons, workshops, and demonstrations
Cons
  • The mats may take up too much space in a small workspace

Blocking mats are of excellent quality.

Used blocking mats to block a needlepointpiece. Mats are of excellent quality and easy to join and use; locks easily and tightly. Casey’s great to have; it’s keeps mats protected and is easy to store.

Pros
  • The set includes 100 t-pins that are rust-resistant and durable, making them perfect for repeated use
Cons
  • The mats may not be suitable for blocking lace patterns
