Fasten off and weave in ends. Move on to blocking.

Blocking:

If you are using natural fiber yarn – Soak the finished granny square for 10 minutes in cool water and squeeze excess water out gently. Do not twist. Lay damp square on blocking boards and use blocking pins to hold in place. Let your granny square dry completely before unpinning.

If you are using synthetic yarn – You can steam block either with a hand steamer or the steam function of your iron by holding the steamer above your granny square for a couple of seconds making sure you don’t touch the yarn otherwise it will burn.
