Here are some basics from the ladies at Knitting Daily: <a href="http://www.knittingdaily.com/blogs/daily/archive/2008/11/19/help-for-finishing-holiday-gifts-blocking.aspx" rel="nofollow">Part 1</a> and <a href="http://www.knittingdaily.com/blogs/daily/archive/2008/11/19/help-for-finishing-holiday-gifts-blocking.aspx" rel="nofollow">Part 2</a>. There are a ton of other great tutorials out there, but like we mentioned, Maggie Righetti's <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0312353545/armadilloneedlec" rel="nofollow">Crocheting in Plain English</a> has some great blocking advice (and general post-finishing care advice too). Hope that helps! Hi Amy,
