Finishing & Blocking Your on the Bias Shawl

Fasten off and weave in all ends. Next, block your crochet shawl pattern. This is an important step to getting the best look out of your hard work. You wouldn’t wear wrinkly pants to a nice event so don’t leave your crochet shawl patterns unblocked.

I took a close up picture of the stitches pre-blocked & blocked, just notice the difference!
Blocking opens up those stitches and gives the shawl a better drape.
