You can easily finish your knitted or crocheted patches with Kainor's medium size Blocking Board!

The Blocking Board is made of Finnish birch plywood and it's a handy aid for finishing knitted or crocheted patches.

For example, blocking Granny squares or African Flowers into their shape can be done easily with the help of the board. Connecting the blocked patches to each other is easier and the work becomes neater. Holes are located 1cm apart so you can block any shape, even round ones.

The set includes a 29.5cm x 29.5cm Blocking Board and 20 pcs of 5cm long galvanized nails. The nails are pushed from below into the Blocking Board and they stay firmly in place in this 6mm thick plywood board. Zinc plating prevents nails from rusting.

The Board also includes a needle gauge for 2-8 mm needles and a measuring scale.

Tips for using the Blocking board:

Push the nails into the Board from the bottom, so that the sharp side of the nails is up and it is easy to add patches to the Board. You can block several patches at once. Wash or dampen the patches, straighten and shape. Pin the patches to the Board with nails. Let the patches dry stretched out to the Board.

Note! The holes in the Blocking Board are purposely made tight so that they don't loosen during use. Especially the first time, installing the nail in place can feel tight. As a tip, the first time you apply the nail, you should place the nail in the hole and press the Board against a hard surface or rotate the nail lightly when pressing. In the future, the nail goes to the same hole easily and stays firmly in place.
