Rollin', rollin', rollin'

I'm about 5 inches into the MC of my sweater, and I love the way it's turning out. And I lovelovelove working with Rowan Cashsoft! Anyway, my hem absolutely refuses to lie down. Did anyone have such a stubborn hem? I know blocking will help, but I'm afraid this is too rolly for blocking to totally get rid of.

  • I'm having the exact same problem and am hoping that blocking will cure it. (I hope!) I'm also using Cashsoft.

  • I had that problem, too. I used coiless pins to hold it down, basically by pinning the front & back together. I have not bloked yet, so don't know if the pin idea will work. On my blog post of 08.15.05 where I've got progress pics, you can kind of see the pins.

  • Aha! A question I can help with! I too am using Cashsoft and I've blocked the bodice - rolling totally gone. Not even a smidgen of a roll. I was worried about it too... so glad it came out ok.
