Well what happened is I now have a curve in the blanket. Think I pulled the stitches too tight. Once I block the blanket will it have to be reblocked once the person who receives it wash it or is it set permanently? Please help me. Thank you so much!! Hello again Rachel, lol

Especially if it's curling, having something to hold it down to keep it in place is probably needed. Hi Jaci, you can try to pin it down.

I have never really known how to do this. I've only seen things that have been steam ironed, and I hate the look of ironed crochet! Any gifts like this I ever received, I've immediately washed and air-fluffed in the dryer. Love all the neat hints and stuff on your site! Hey, thanks for the information.
