| Super rolly edges. When worn, it basically rolls up into a tube. Oops. Guess it's time to try out blocking. |
Doesn't it look delicious?

| Attempt at blocking. Washed in mesh laundry bag in machine on cold delicate cycle. Using clothespins to keep edges from rolling as it dries. |

| The "knit" (right) side. |
 |
| The "purl" (reverse) side. |
 |
| Blocking definitely helped it unroll a little. Perhaps when not worn, it'll have to be sit under ceramic lasagna pans.... |
 |
| Cozy. Love the look of it looped around twice! |
