This post may look very familiar. You're probably thinking that you've seen that blue lace scarf before.

And you'd be right . . . but you'd also be wrong!

I used the same "Shetland Triangle" pattern that I used back in February, but I used different yarn. Still blue but a different brand. At the yarn shop they seemed pretty different to me, but now that they are knit up they're looking very similar.

Also new is the blocking method that I used. Last time I pinned the scarf out on a towel using about 75 sewing pins. But I recently obtained actual blocking mats and lace blocking wires, so this time I tried them out. I am a big fan of them! I slipped a blocking wire through the points of the scalloped edge, and along the straight side, and then used about 20 pins to hold the wires in place.

I've currently got another lace scarf on the needles, so you'll probably being seeing the blocking equipment again soon!
