Then measure to see what your gauge is and select a new pattern based on that gauge.

DEAR PAT: I recently read in your column a letter from Mari of Seattle and I know just how she felt when her acrylic sweater stretched when blocked. too, read the directions DO NOT STEAM too late, after I had already steam-blocked it. You told her what to do next time, but I have some hope for her now.

Then drop the hanks into the washer on fast spin to squeeze out as much water as possible and dry in dryer on low heat until just barely dry.
