Blocking made easy and effective!

As someone who enjoys Arts and Crafts, I've been looking for an easy and effective way to block my knitting projects. My analysis of this product showed that it's perfect for the job. The kit comes with everything one needs to block a project correctly, including wires, T-pins, and a handy storage case.

Pros
  • Easy to use and helps achieve professional-looking finished projects.
Cons
  • Requires extra time and effort to block completed knitting projects.

Pros
  • connecting pages fit together like pieces of a puzzle.
Cons
  • There are doubts.

I bought a set of these 10 months ago and another this month. (I loved the first set and wanted to use these rugs for my larger projects like larger sweaters, which…

Pros
  • Includes nine 12" square 3/8" foam rubber mats
Cons
  • I don't remember but there was something
