If you dread blocking jumpers (sweaters) you will love the written and photographed instructions for how to make your own jumper blocker. The traditional Shetland dressing frame has been a part of Shetland households for generations and in this issue Alexi shows how to make one. The best part is, it packs down to next to nothing and is fully adjustable for a range of sizes and sleeve types. Pure genius!
