Can you feel the excitement?! I’m blocking for the first time! Soon Frieda will be finished and wearable! 
My apologies for the not-so-great photos; I know the view over my washer and dryer isn’t exciting, either.
(Off-topic: my Akismet anti-spam plugin seems to be on the fritz again, darnit. Turning on Spam Karma again!)
Cool!
Did you use anything like Eucalan or something? I actually just used some lavendar hair conditioner for my scarf and it worked really well. 
I’m dyyyyying (well, not really, but you know, close) to see this sweater put together!
Yep, I used Eucalan!
The yarn has seemed to relax and soften up a bit, but the real test will be trying it on, of course!
I finally bought a blocking board from WEBS… That looks gorgeous! Really well done!!! I am afraid of blocking a bit, but since I’ve never made a sweater it hasn’t really been an issue… but I’ll have to bite the bullet soon!
Annie: blocking is much easier than I thought it would be!
Though, I haven’t blocked lace yet, and I would think that’s a little tougher with all the points and edgings! I really want a proper blocking board–maybe I’ll check out WEBS
