Blocking Template - Check Printer Settings

[Shandeh]

When printing out your Blocking Templates for the Knit-Along, please check your printer settings, or your template will print out the wrong size.

Most printers are set for "fit to page", so your document will include everything from the computer document on your page. But you need to print out the Bernat Blocking Templates as "actual size".

In this photo, I have shown both examples of a printing test I did in my home.
The one on the left was what I originally printed from the document. I didn't realize it was set for "fit to page". The one on the right is the one I printed tonight, after changing my printer settings to "actual size".

Quite a difference.
So, make sure you check your printer settings when printing out that document.

What are the final dimensions of the blocking template when taped together?
Is it like 9.5 in?

I don't want to sound like a dummy, BUT where do you find the BLOCKING TEMPLATE? I have searched the website and cannot find the link or where it is. Thank you.

It's in the first post of Clue 1 for the KAL. Here's a link - viewtopic.php?f=181&t=1625

Thank you. I thought I read all of the postings, but I must have missed that one. Thank you again.

Would it be possible to post the dimensions of the blocking template - i.e. the one I printed is 4 3/4 inches square (so when you put the 4 templates together it will measure 9.5 x 9.5). Is that correct? Thank you!
