Thank you so much for saying it out loud! I did wonder about potential consequences of not-blocking - I like that it’s kind of bouncy in its current state. However, it will have to be washed at some point, so I figured it’s better to find out now… Tension-wise, it’s a little messy (two years on the needles) but it’s also hairy so it’s not super obvious. Mostly, I’d like to soak it to wash away the project-of-doom vibes and initiate it as a garment.
Yes, I knitted it by hand. Thank you so much!
