I started the Hemlock on September 11 and finished it on the 19. Since then I have been making excuses for not blocking it and taking pictures. I had actually packed it away! I have never blocked anything other than a triangle shawl and how can one go wrong with that?
But yesterday I was forced to admit I was wimping out and so I set to work blocking. I can not tell you how many times I adjusted, re-adjusted and then re-adjusted again. I can still see where some of the points are wider or pointier than others and it irks me but not enough to go get a ruler and lose several hours of my time.

Last night we started shearing...my goofy arm says one a night or every other night will work just fine. Last night it was one of the Finn girls.

Now I have to stop making more excuses and go get tires on the car.
