I almost always wet-block and it seems to work out most of the time. Lovely sweater, and thanks for your nice comment! I hope we get a bit more summer weather, too.Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01932470098845772514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-685160061274005756.post-83148040307243722022010-07-15T07:05:18.128+01:002010-07-15T07:05:18.128+01:00I always wet block by soaking the pieces.

Good luck weaving the ends in! I hate that part but your sweater looks like it's worth the bother. The colors are great. I hope it fits him!Andihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08730751493958885456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-685160061274005756.post-17043935164693717482010-07-14T06:02:09.286+01:002010-07-14T06:02:09.286+01:00oh my word, look at those ends!

I hope it fits him! Also, I like your blocking foam squares. They are similar to ones my husband uses in the garage. But yours are cuter!Jeanninehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10687698784070491269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-685160061274005756.post-532995099664506342010-07-13T21:10:38.494+01:002010-07-13T21:10:38.494+01:00Wow!

I hope it fits him perfectly :)<br /><br />I've had projects that I got tired of but usually when that happens, I just pretend they don't exist and start something new.
