Have you ever knit lace, only to give up because it looked so terrible? It can be so honestly disheartening. But the magic of blocking can solve all your project's ills! Just take a look at the difference a good block makes. It's mind blowing!
For the video above, the swatch was washed with a wool wash and rinsed thoroughly. The excess moisture was squeezed out into a towel, and then the swatch was stretched as much as possible and pinned out to dry. I used blocking wires woven in and out of all edges to get a straight square, and pinned the wires with t-pins. When it was thoroughly dry, I then unpinned it and admired the lovely pattern!
