You teach me something every time - I have been knitting and blocking for years, but the tips about ‘staking out’ the size of the pieces, and folding before it goes in the water are new to me. And brilliant! I have an epic cable sweater and didn’t want to squash all that work, and now I know how to safely block! Thanks, Suzanne! And your sweater is stunning, I’ll def check out how to embroider next! 💕
Every once in a while you find a "how to" video that is exactly what you're looking for. This was that video! Thank you! Now I have the confidence to try blocking (in pieces) for the first time.
I’m about to block my first sweater and this tutorial definitely gave me the confidence that I can do it successfully. Thank you for such a thorough process!
I happened across this video after watching another of your videos and it made me chuckle. Not because of you or your work, but in one of my groups on FB just today a new knitter asked about how to block a cardigan and there were at least 30 comments "I have never blocked!" It was difficult for me to not respond "and your project pictures show just that". Blocking makes such a huge difference in the finished product! I will share your video with the woman who had asked initially. Beautiful sweater, btw.
I would have so much trouble keeping my mouth shut. Blocking is one of the best parts. I stand over mine like it’s a baby. Going back ad forward adjusting 😂
Thank you Suzanne for making me a "wiser" knitter in the few videos I've watched of yours back to back. I'm hooked for the next few hours - you teach so beautifully and in detail. Thank you! God bless you with health and happiness always. Love from India... 💕
I love the idea of using the string to set up the measurements! Very clever. Even though I have interlocking boards with 1" squares, your idea saves time.
Thank you Suzanne! I wet blocked sweater pieces today. Wow after watching your video I paused it and went in and redid the pieces to your way. I also like how you have the measurements drawn or sewn on the table. What a great idea and makes so much sense to have a template. I am going to send a fr req on FB now that I am back. I appreciate your videos. By the way the sweater is beautiful and must have taken hours to do.
I enjoyed the instructions. I never placed my back and fronts together when blocking. I usually placed them separately; but, I will try it this way with my next sweater. Thanks so much.
Thank you! It just makes sense to me to do it this way. Once the sweater is seamed and then washed at some point in the future, it will be double decker at that time too. Happy knitting.
I am just going to block my first knitted jumper and this is the best video I have found. I have subscribed to your channel and look forward to following you. Great video. Big thumbs up.
Me too, I can hardly wait to get this sweater finished to see how it looks. I love that book. Thanks. Be sure to subscribe to my channel if you haven't already and please share my videos with your social media friends. Happy knitting.
TY! TY! TY! Ur site is very professional in AV and tutorials. I've been perusing good knitting sites for me. I don't want music, horrible AV, and constant repeats for 30-60 min videos which can b done in less than 15 min. Ur 30-60 minutes r very informative w/o repeats. I'm sorry can't join FB (my choice, not political or dogmatic or expelled). I just choose UA-cam (again my own choice). So glad u r sharing thru this forum.
Hi Suzanne thanks a lot for your blocking videos, I was looking for this technique on the web and I found a lot information about it, but all of them essentially talk about only wet and pin the project. You had gave me the key for a successful blocking: “Blocking is not about to stretching, it’s about to wet and carefully settle it in its final position”. Your explanation is clear and precise I love it. Now I’m going to do my first blocking. 💕
Suzanne I'm chuckling here. I'm thinking there aren't too many sub-zero days in Bakersfield where one could wear such a beautifully designed wool sweater. You need to flash your fashions in Minnesota!
Just jump in. Make a child or baby version to give it a try. You will love it. Be sure to subscribe to my channel if you haven't already and please share my videos with your social media friends. Happy knitting.
I guess I have made a baby sweater. It was not pieced, though. Somehow using pieces and making it adult seems scary. Can you recommend a pattern for basic pieced sweater? Thanks!
Sometimes it is easier to start with a plain vest that has side seams, picked up stitches around the armholes and neck. You can go on Ravelry and search for vests.
Gorgeous sweater. Great idea about the lines. I will use this next time I block. Normally I knit in the round but for MK I will need how to seam. FYI. As a master spinner who just taught raw fleece washing yeasterday, I will comment that you will not felt your sweater by patting. Felting comes from high pH, radical changes in water temperature and aggitation. So, a tepid wetting and patting will not cause felting. Even non superwash will not felt unless a combination of the requirements are applied.
Knitting with Suzanne Bryan Am subscribed. Believe it or not, I know no knitters on social media with whom to share. When I do, I will be sure to share.
You should get on Ravelry and Facebook. There are lots of knitters online. We are a friendly bunch. I have a group in each - Knitting with Suzanne Bryan - check on Facebook for us. I would love to have you join our group and you would love it too. Happy knitting.
As always, your videos are SO well done. I'm at the stage of having to block my sweater, before joining the pieces together. For guidance, I looked up suggestions on the Internet and, BINGO, there was a link to you video. I ALWAYS trust your videos. I initially watched another one (somehow I missed seeing your link at first). But after watching yours, it just confirmed what I've always thought: You're the best!! You have coached me through SO MANY tasks/skills that I wasn't sure about. You've been like a private mentor leading me through the knitting process. I'm sure I'm one of many who have turned to you for your guidance. Thank you! You really are the best... :)
I've blocked a lot of lace, but I'm about to start my first 2 wool sweaters (2 different needle sizes, so why not?). One is knit in one piece in the round, but one is seamed. Thanks for both videos! I also love putting pins down for my measurements while the piece is soaking. Saves so much time
Excellent video Suzzane!! Thank you. I haven't finished a sweater I knit for my daughter a couple of years ago because I didn't want to ruin it. Now I know how to do it properly thanks to you. Using the dimensional staking method is ingenious. Also I would like to ask what type of board you are using? I have the blocking mats but I want something larger for blankets and long scarves. Thank you.
Thank you thank you thank you! I was starting to despair of knitting sweaters. NOW I know why they always ended up like potatoebags, no matter the number of swatches I made....

Thank you very much Suzanne. I will share your video on social media. Very instructive. I learn a lot and have many questions. I will put them on your facebook group. Have a good day.
Excellent video. Gorgeous cardigan. I’ve subbed and will join our Facebook too. Watched this because I have live threads and was worried about ruing my tools. Need to show my daughter so she doesn’t shrink everything I make for my grandchild. Though I think she’s learned her lesson now.
Beautiful knitting! I am just about to try my first blocking. When you join it and do the bands do you need to block the bands? When you wash the garment later do you have to block again? Fantastic tutorials, thanks
Great questions. After I seam and then add the bands. I steam the seams and bands. When washing, yes, you will need to lay it out again to its intended dimensions, taking care to not stretch the fabric while it is wet. I keep the schematics of my garments so that when I do wash and reblock, I know what the dimensions should be.
@@SuzanneBryan , thank you so much for taking the time to reply. I have used your weaving in method for the ends, very neat and have also saved your clips on doing bands and seams. Have always been disappointed with the finishing off before. Whole new world of knitting, your things are so beautiful!
Thank you! It is my original design. The stitch pattern is an adaptation from "The Japanese Stitch Bible" . I am teaching an in person local class (16 weeks) on Aran Cardigans. I have 20 students, and each one is designing an original Aran cardigan while learning all about cables, charting, garment construction, seaming, etc. I hope you share my videos, that is the best way to show your thanks. Happy knitting and come back to watch more.
Great video thank you 🙏 Why do you like non super wash wool better then super wash I am new to knitting and used super wash so far thinking it is easier to handle when needed to be washed
Great video, I have not blocked before so this was very helpful, how did you get your final measurements? I am knitting a pattern for multiple sizes that does not include any finished measurements for any of those sizes. Thank-you.
I used the schematic. If there is no schematic you can calculate the circumference of the chest by the total stitches and stitch gauge. You can do the same for the arms. Length can be calculated by adding up the inches give plus any rows and row gauge.
I know this video is on how to wet block, but can you comment on what you'd use to steam block and when you should steam over wet blocking? Thank you. Super informative video.
I steam block the edgings after i add them, and seams. Sometimes I steam block as a prelude to what the fabric is going to look like. But, in general, I prefer immersion wet blocking. For steaming you can use a steam iron, but don't touch the fabric, or a garment steamer. I use a hand held garment streamer made by Rowenta.
Hello, Thank you for this video. I actually really love the sweater pattern you use in this video. Would you share with me which one it is so I can find it?
This sweater is from my tutorial - ITAG Bottom Up Drop Shoulder Tutorial. It is not a pattern, but rather a system to create your own design. ravel.me/itag-bottom-up-drop-shoulder
Nope, they are stainless steel. Thanks. Be sure to subscribe to my channel if you haven't already and please share my videos with your social media friends. Happy knitting.
Hello Suzanne, What are you blocking the fabrics on ? Is it polystyrene ? I never blocked my pièces before ans I want to do it right this time to have a better result. It looks really different after being blocked. 😊 Have a nice day, Claudia
So glad I came across this video. It totally debunked the theory that blocking equals stretching. P Very pretty pattern. Have you published it? Like your blocking board. What is it made of?
This particular blocking board is styrofoam wall insulation. It is 2ft by 4ft and I place two side by side to get a 4 by 4 foot working area. I have not published this pattern. Thank you and happy knitting.
I use styrofoam insulation boards. They are 2 ft by 4 ft and I put two side by side to make a 4 ft square. You can also use gym mats, they are interlocking and come in 2ft square sections. If you look you can get inexpensive ones.
I’m paralyzed with fear to block my sweater pieces by submerging in water because it’s a busy cable piece knit with 84% alpaca 8 % merino wool and 8% nylon. I neglected to knit up a test piece because in a crunch on time for Christmas. Should I worry about over stretching with this yarn no matter how careful I follow your technique? Should I steam under moist toweling instead?
@@SuzanneBryan Oh, I did knit the gauge swatch 😊and it was fine, but I didn’t do a test block by submerging. Your video got me to think about doing the blocking that way.

@@SuzanneBryan Hi. I was wondering the same as the French person. I was impressed with the design. I am not a pattern person. I learn the basics and then go and create, but the last 2 sweaters I have seen you knit have impressed and inspired me. Thank you.
I am not sure how to correct that. I have not had anyone else way they couldn't hear it. At this point more than 600 people have watched it. If anyone else can't hear it, please let me know.
This is the clearest best procedure for wet blocking I have ever seen. Follow the instructions implicitly and your garment will be beautiful.
Wow, thank you!

I like it! It looks very professional, and seeing that you're SUCH a "tweaker", I'm sure that it will only get better!! 😍
Thanks Duke.

Very pretty pattern. Have you published it? Like your blocking board. What is it made of?
This particular blocking board is styrofoam wall insulation. It is 2ft by 4ft and I place two side by side to get a 4 by 4 foot working area. I have not published this pattern. Thank you and happy knitting.
Did you block before making the front bands for buttons and buttonholes? Wouldn't they need to be blocked too?
Yes, block before adding bands. It makes all the difference. Then steam block the bands. Thank you! Happy knitting!
What is your blocking board made from?
I use styrofoam insulation boards. They are 2 ft by 4 ft and I put two side by side to make a 4 ft square. You can also use gym mats, they are interlocking and come in 2ft square sections. If you look you can get inexpensive ones.

Should I steam under moist toweling instead?
Yes, I would just steam. If you did not do a gauge swatch, all bets are off on what size it will be. Sorry.
@@SuzanneBryan Oh, I did knit the gauge swatch 😊and it was fine, but I didn’t do a test block by submerging. Your video got me to think about doing the blocking that way.
