Such a great idea! I know they have them at the dollar store--I'll just have to buy about 1/2 dozen so it will be large enough! Thanks for sharing!! :)
I just bought a 4' X 8' X 1" piece of rigid foam insulation to use for a blocking board for afghans. Had to have it cut so it would fit in my car, but I figure a little clear package tape on the cuts should hold it together, and if I put the tape on just right I should be able to fold the board up for storage! The insulation was $13 at Home Depot.
I tried to get my grandkids alphabet foam squares, but when I finally asked the kids about them, their mother had already given them to a friend with small children. See what I get for waiting, lol.

OMG! I thought I was the only one who did this! I have had my "Beauty and the Beast" blocking mats for over a year now! LOL

DeleteHa ha! Knitters think alike....I used my old exercise mats! Now that I knit so much there just isn't the time for exercise! ;)))
ReplyDeleteJudy, what a great idea!
DeletePS Isn't knitting exercise? ;-)
For your hands, yes, your bottom, no!
