    Looks great!

    (I’d've pulled the points down some more, but I’m a VERY aggressive blocker. And I like pointy bits.)

    Don’t think I didn’t try! But the wires kept slipping over the t pins the more I pulled, so I just did the best I could.

    I love lace blocking - it’s so magical. And now that I’ve said that, unicorns might fly out of my butt. Magically. ;)
    So how big of a pain in the ass to knit is Kiri? Like how many stitches are we talking about that you end up with? Because I need a project for the Ravelympics…
