Could you please just post the final measurement of each motif? Also, is the assembly diagram on the printer page to assemble to motifs, or just the blocking template?

The blocking template is 9 1/2" square.

The measurement for KAL Clue #1 is 9 1/2" square. The diagram on the printer page is just for the motif.

I don't understand how to use this template. My first 1/2 of the square is bigger than the template. I am using size 8 needles and a thin yarn, BUT the finished 1st color is almost 8 inches long.
Thanks.

The template is 1/4 of the block, and it says to print 4 times and tape together, hope this helps.

The template should be printed 4 times (make sure your printer settings are to print "actual size")
After printing all 4 of the templates, you will cut them out, tape them together, and should have a square that measures 9 1/2" x 9 1/2".

Thank you so much. I read "print 4 and tape together" but it didn't make sense.
I have 1 done now!
This is quite the project.

So, what are the measurements of the correct template square?

:helpme: I have never blocked before. I don't know what I am supposed to do with the template. While reading some of the post, I noticed that one knitter has blocked her squares. How do you block? And, if you change the shape and then wash it, will it go back to its original shape?
