WoolWinders: A Knitting Salon is now offering a new service to its customers: BLOCKING. We have arranged for HERSHEY’S CLEANERS to pick up and deliver here at the shop every THURSDAY beginning April 16. Just bring your garments that need to be blocked to the shop before then and you can pick them up the following week. We have been using Hershey’s for over a year and can vouch for the quality of their blocking (and cleaning, for that matter). Just make sure you do three things: include any specifics with the garment including whether you need the piece(s) blocked to specific measurements; make certain that you have the things at the shop by close of business Wednesday of the week you choose; and please give us a credit card number.the blocking is incredibly reasonable (averages about $7.00 a sweater). We won’t charge your card as long as you pick up your garments within two weeks, but we will be laying out the money for the blocking so appreciate your cooperation with the card. . We will bill you when you pick up your garments the following week.

So put away those beach towels until the summer and take back your dining room table!
