I was thinking I could trace the other one (as it is a large for my big feet!) and cut some out of plywood but actually plastic would be the best as they will be wet. I just don't have time right now so I will order one more matching blocker and wash one pair at a time!

I remember my Mother used pant stretchers for my father's work pants years ago and I'm sure they didn't cost nearly that much and that was for 2 and they were lots bigger...and you got one for each leg!

I mean... who only makes one sock to block? Okay... I'm sure there are some one-footed knitters (or someone knitting for someone who is one-footed) who only need to knit one sock, but still... Maybe they figure one can be blocking while the second one is being knitted up. And then maybe, just maybe, I don't know what I'm talking about since I've knit a sock before. Let alone contemplated blocking one. Why does one need to block socks, anyway? This impertinent, but curious mind wants to know. I hope you enjoy watching the football game tonight, friend!Beckihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16940604077427078249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4823072828140599817.post-58543154855922220482017-02-05T13:23:00.362-06:002017-02-05T13:23:00.362-06:00Gosh. I would've thought you would automatical... Gosh. I would've thought you would automatically get two sock blockers when you order them. Thanks for the warning! I always add two extra stitches when I do the heel flap. For example, with most patterns if you use 64 stitches to begin, they tell you to pick up up 16 along the edge. I always pick up 18 and make sure one of them is in the ditch. That seems to eliminate any gaps or holes. I like your sock finish and I'm looking forward to seeing your Hermione socks take shape. Have a lovely day my friend.<br />Blessings,<br />Betsy Betsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807691752817225336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4823072828140599817.post-43834485666236375652017-02-05T13:08:09.777-06:002017-02-05T13:08:09.777-06:00Nice socks.....kind of a bummer about the sock blo...Nice socks.....kind of a bummer about the sock blocker though.
