KnitPro White Blocking Pins: 20-piece kit for blocking knitted and crocheted fabrics
The KnitPro white blocking pins are a blocking comb system designed to speed up the blocking process and improve the final finish of your knitted and crocheted garments. The kit includes 20 white KnitPro blocking pins, each with several stainless-steel pins integrated into every piece, so you can work long edges and curves with far more stability than with loose pins.
Thanks to their rust-resistant pins and anchor holes that allow you to run a cord along the edge, these white KnitPro blockers help maintain even tension while the fabric dries. This makes it easier to open up lace, adjust measurements and achieve a polished look on shawls, stoles, scarves, blankets or garments after washing or wet blocking.
If you need to buy KnitPro blocking pins for knitting so you can block your projects accurately, this white set is a practical option for anyone who wants a durable, easy-to-use kit that is suitable for both small projects and larger garments.
What the KnitPro white blocking pin set includes
The white KnitPro blocker set brings together everything you need to block anything from small pieces to large-scale projects. All the pieces come in a rigid box that keeps them neatly organised and means you always have the size you need to hand.
Inside you will find two types of blocking comb, designed to suit different edge styles and fabric shapes:
- ▷ 12 white KnitPro blockers with 8 pins, ideal for long sides, shawls, blankets and straight edges.
- ▷ 8 white KnitPro blockers with 4 pins, easier to handle on corners, curves, armholes and areas where you need extra precision.
Thanks to this combination, the 20-piece KnitPro white blocker kit allows you to adjust the spacing of the pins to suit each project, saving time and using fewer individual pins than with a traditional blocking system.
Features of the white KnitPro blockers for blocking your projects
The white KnitPro blockers for blocking projects are made from sturdy plastic with stainless-steel pins, designed to withstand frequent use and contact with damp pieces without rusting. This makes them a reliable tool for anyone who regularly blocks lace shawls, jumpers or blankets.
Some of the key features of the KnitPro white blocker kit are:
- ▷ Robust plastic body in white, easy to see against both the blocking surface and the fabric.
- ▷ Rust-resistant stainless-steel pins, designed to anchor firmly into the blocking surface without bending.
- ▷ Anchor holes in each blocker, allowing you to run a cord along the edge to maintain even tension on longer pieces.
- ▷ Multi-pin system in each piece, which reduces the number of loose pins needed and speeds up the blocking of straight edges and gentle curves.
With these features, the white KnitPro blocking pins for blocking fabrics offer very precise control over the final shape of the piece and help the fabric keep its measurements better after drying.
How to use the white KnitPro fabric blockers for knitting and crochet
The white KnitPro blockers for knitting and crochet are used on a soft surface (for example, EVA foam boards or blocking mats) to hold the piece in place while it dries. The fabric can be freshly washed, steam blocked or evenly dampened before you stretch it out.
A suggested step-by-step method for using the 20-piece KnitPro white blocking pin kit would be:
- ▷ Spread the damp piece out on the blocking surface, following the direction of the fabric and smoothing it gently with your hands.
- ▷ Start by securing the corners with 4-pin blockers, first setting the desired length and width.
- ▷ Use 8-pin blockers along the main edges, keeping regular spacing between pieces to distribute the tension evenly.
- ▷ On very long pieces, thread a cord through the anchor holes of several white KnitPro blockers and tighten it gradually to even out the edge.
- ▷ Leave the piece to dry completely before removing the blockers, checking that the measurements match the pattern or the result you are aiming for.
With practice, you will be able to adapt the combination of 4-pin and 8-pin blockers to each type of project, from triangular shawls to blankets or knitted panels worked in separate pieces.
Tips and tricks for blocking with KnitPro white blocking pins
The finish you achieve with the white KnitPro blockers depends as much on the type of fibre as on the blocking method. This is why it is advisable to test first on a swatch or small piece, especially if you are working with very delicate fibres or yarns with a high silk or alpaca content.
Some practical tips to get the most out of the KnitPro white blocking pin set are:
- ▷ Always use a soft surface that allows the pins to go in fully without bending.
- ▷ Avoid overstretching fibres with little elasticity; it is better to increase the tension gradually and check the shape again after a few minutes.
- ▷ Combine 8-pin blockers on straight sections with 4-pin blockers on curves, necklines and armholes to prevent distortion.
- ▷ Always store the blockers in their box, completely dry and out of the reach of children and pets.
By following these tips, the white KnitPro blockers become a very precise finishing tool, especially useful if you regularly block lace knitting, colourwork or garments that require exact measurements.
