Blocking!

Oh yea, it's time to block!  I finished knitting last night and today I started thinking about how I was going to block it without blocking wires.  I'm not a perfectionist, but with the amount of time I've spent on this project, I really want it to come out nice.  I came across this post by Velma of Colorbomb Creations, which used a yoga mat.  And not only do I have an old yoga mat, but I know where it is.

After a nice bath in Soak, the shawl was ready to pin.  It's all pinned and I'm waiting for it to dry... I'm in serious need of patience - I think I've checked it 10 times all ready today!  I can't wait give it to my mom for Mother's Day!
