Hello,
I really like those little booties and will try them soon! May I ask you a general crochet question? Do people still use blocking (wetting and stretching the item to shape, then allowing it to dry)? I haven’t crocheted in awhile and wondered it this is used effectively for acrylic yarn or only for wool…? I really look forward to your reply asap as I’m working on a baby blanket for my daughter right now. Thanks.

Yess Jane people still do blocking their items..:-D
