Tulip Blocking Wires, Short - 8 pieces

With the Tulip Short Blocking Wires, you can neatly stretch out your crochet and knitting projects so that stitches, edges, and patterns are shown to their best advantage. These short blocking wires are ideal for blocking smaller projects or pieces, such as scarves, shawls, shawls, lacework, gauge swatches, and individual panels of garments.

The set consists of 8 stainless steel blocking wires, each 50 cm long, and comes in a handy storage case. Carefully thread the wires through the edge of your damp project and secure them to a blocking mat with pins or knit blockers. As your project dries, it will take on a nice shape, and straight edges, points, and openwork patterns will remain more visible.

Blocking wires are especially useful for projects where you want a neat finish. Think of lace patterns, openwork, crocheted shawls, knitted scarves, or projects that need a little extra shaping after washing. Their short length of 50 cm allows you to work with precision and makes it easier to block curves, smaller sections, and details.
