Blocking of crochet doily





Blocking is the second most exciting part of crocheted doilies.  The piece is finally pinned out and drying and all you can do is stare in amazement at what just came off your crochet needles.  Then you give thanks for the miracle of blocking, because before this step, your dolly was a lumpy, shapeless mess.  At the same time, your happiness is checked by a sense of dread as you wonder what this will look like on a human being.  Will it be ethereal and elegant, or just a giant doily?
