Blocking an afghan...wet or steam block?


LadyBeBop

Question

This is my first attempt at blocking, and I'm a little hesitant.:help

 

I know I have to block it. The edges curl up too much. :sigh Previously, I haven't blocked my afghans since they were for the home. But I want to enter this in the county fair, so blocking is a must.

 

But I'm....well afraid.

 

I don't want to mess up and ruin the afghan.

 

So what to y'all suggest? Leaning towards the steam block, but if the wet block is better.

 

As always, many thanks.

Check out the blocking directions in the Happy Hooker. She recommends wet block, and I agree with her reasoning (for garments). I'd be too afraid to put heat near a garment.
