Handmade With Love

Our stitch markers and row counters are proudly handmade by our team just for you.

How It Works

1

Choose a combination of heel spacer pieces, and a toe that add up to a similar foot length as your sock. (Close is good, It doesn't need to be a perfect match)

2

Place your pieces on a table and connect them together like a puzzle. It should be a snug fit and you may need to press firmly on each tab to connect the pieces.

3

Use the remaining pieces to form the leg of the sock blocker. End with the unused toe.

4

Place damp (not wet) socks onto the sock blockers and allow to air dry completely.

Why Block Your Projects?

Even Out Hand Knit Stitches

We're not robots and hand knit stitches naturally vary as we knit day after day.
Blocking does wonders to make those stitches look smooth and uniform

Help The Fabric Lay Smoothly

Naturally edges curl, sections pucker, and let's face it weird things happen!
Blocking helps all the stitchs settle comfortably into their new shape as a stitch (and not just yarn) letting the fabric drape beautifully in a finished garment.

Gently Stretch Or Shrink a Size

Blocking can work magic, even gently stretch a piece that is a little too small, or slightly compress something that may be a touch too big.

And oh the lace!
Blocking is the key to beautiful lace!

Lifetime Guarantee

Each of our tools are hand made to last for years and years of happy knitting and breakage is not common.
But if something does go wrong with your new tool, rest assured that we offer a lifetime warranty on all of our Twice Sheared Sheep products.

Perfect size sock blockers

Love these sock blockers for multiple sizes! Color work and textures like cables show up beautifully with correct size blockers.

Good in theory but….

I thought this was a great idea however they don’t meet my expectations. They assemble without a problem but they don’t stay assembled. They fall apart extremely easily making it impossible to put socks on them let alone removing the sock. I had to use packing tape on all the joints to make them usable. I would not recommend this item.

On no Tom, I'm so sorry this is happening with your sock blocking kit!
There is a very fine balance in these to making sure that the pieces fit tight enough that they will hold together, but loose enough that you can actually GET them together. Are all of the pieces super loose? Or do you have just a few pieces that seem to have loose connections?

You might try flipping one of the pieces over so that it has the back side facing up instead. Sometimes because of the way they are cut they will fit a little tighter one way rather than the other.

If that doesn't work, I'm happy to send a replacement set that hopefully will work better for you 😊

Build a Sock Blocking Kit - Modular Sock Blockers

This sparkling build a sock blocker arrived in a very neat, small package with a snap flap to hold the pieces securely for easy storage.The pieces fit together like a jigsaw puzzle and comes in a variety of sizes to build the foot size of sock you’re creating. There are enough pieces to build two sock blocks. On each end of this sock piece is a hole that can be used to hang your sock blocker on a door knob or hanger for the drying process.The pieces are made of very sturdy material. I thought this whole system was ingenious. The only issue I had was once assembled the pieces can fall apart easily and to solve this issue I put a piece of tape on each piece to hold it securely against the next corresponding piece. Overall, very pleased with this handy tool.
