KnitIQ Blocking Mats for Knitting - Extra Thick Blocking Boards with Grids with 100 T-pins and Storage Bag for Needlework Or Crochet - Pack of 9

I’m fairly new to the crocheting world, and I knew eventually I would run into the issue that I would have to block my work. I had finished 3 projects (a small bag for my crochet hooks, needles, scissors, and yarn, a blanket, and an afghan) that didn’t need to be blocked. And then I started doing granny squares and realized it wasn’t going to be as easy as the other things I had completed. I did not have any idea how I was going to block them because I did not have the right equipment, per se. Well I put my thinking cap on and did the best that I could do at the time. I improvised and it worked, sorta. Anyway, I started on another afghan and the yarn I used was not laying the same way my other projects did so I decided I was NOT going to go through what I went through the last time. So, the hunt was on! I looked at all the mats I could find and I kept coming back to these. I read the reviews and decided to give these a try, even though some reviews stated the lines didn’t line up. I am SO glad I bought these! The afghan I made is long, like most afghans, so I needed several sets of these. I bought 4 sets, I only needed 2 mats from the fourth set but hey, I would rather have too many than not enough. Each mat is approximately 12 x 12 and they fit together like a jigsaw puzzle. They come with 100 pins, I counted them, and the case has a handle for easy carrying. Storing them is a breeze!Now some people were saying the lines didn’t match up when they connected them. I ran into the same problem. But, each mat has 4 sides so I just turned the mat. By doing that, problem solved! My lines are now straight!If you are looking for mats for blocking your work, look no further! These mats are thick. They are sturdy. They are SO easy to use. And they do the job beautifully!Thanks guys for making a wonderful product. And if I need more, there is NO doubt in my mind I will buy more!

I brought these blocking boards in May 2019 (over 4 years ago) and they are still going strong.What do I like about them?* They are sturdy and thick so the T pins don’t damage the table below and I can move them whilst my ‘project’ is pinned out.* They clip in place easily and however I join them the guide lines are always just so.* I’ve found the guide lines are perfect when straight lines are essential ie:- knitted squares, wall art, felting squares, etc (see photos)* Well made, after 4 years of use some of the blocks look a bit ‘pin cushiony’ in places, that said, they still hold the item firmly in place.* Easily stored in a clear zipped bag provided. I note now a canvas storage bag is available which I think I will treat myself to.When I brought them I did think twice as I had to pay shipping and import fees from USA (that virtually doubled the cost).Really pleased I did, money well spent - highly recommended.

Excellent blocking boards. Nice and thick. Easy to use as they interlock well together and lines are aligned when you do so. Come in a convenient bag in which to store them when not in use. Before first use, remove them from bag for a few days to a week, in order to air them out a bit to remove the manufacturing odour. Would recommend. Very happy with my purchase.

well made joins together well and stable. plenty of pins to mark out stitch patterns
