FAQs

What materials are these blockers suitable for?

These blockers are designed specifically for use with knitted and crocheted projects.

How many blockers come in a pack?

Can I use these blockers with other types of fabric?

How do I maintain tension while blocking?

You can attach a string through the knit blockers to maintain consistent tension.

How do I clean the blockers?

Clean them with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals.

What if my project is too large for the blockers?

You may need to use additional pins to secure the project, in addition to the blockers.

How should I store the blockers?

Store them in a dry place to prevent damage.

Troubleshooting

Blockers are difficult to insert into the project.

Make sure you are inserting the blockers into the correct areas of the project, such as the edges or along a straight line. If the item is very dense, use a pin to create a small opening before inserting the blocker.

Project is not stretching evenly.

Ensure that the blockers are evenly spaced and that the tension is consistent across the project. Adjust the placement of the blockers as needed.

Blockers are damaged or broken.

Handle the blockers with care and avoid applying excessive force. If a blocker is damaged, replace it with a new one.
