Wondering how to block crochet? There are three main methods of blocking: wet, dry, and cold. Which method you choose will depend on the yarn content, what the item is and, honestly, your preference. For instance, I rarely do a full "wet" block process because it just isn't my favorite. Before you choose, make sure to always consult your yarn label, because you don't want to ruin something you just spent hours making. You might even want to use that gauge swatch you made before starting your project to test that the method you choose is the best for your yarn.
