About KnitIQ Blocking Mats for Knitting - Extra Thick Blocking Boards
Overall Feedback:
95% positive
85% appreciated the accurate measuring tool, though 15% found it inconsistent
The grid lines on the blocking mats do not line up perfectly, making it an inaccurate measuring tool. It is suggested to use a ruler/tape measure instead.
Measuring squares are not accurate and at around 10 inches, there is more than 1/4 inch off.
On the blocking mat, the grid lines are not 1 inch increments, making it difficult to measure specific measurements. If you want to block to specific measurements, these mats are not the ones to get.
90% praised the high-quality needles, but 10% found them brittle
I have noticed that the mats are not self-healing material and after just one project, they are full of needle holes.

No matter how I rotate them, the lines of the blocks do not match up perfectly.
93% liked the variety of notions included, though 7% found some unnecessary
Upon arrival, there was a slight smell, but I put the pieces together, laid it on a wire rack and put it outside for a day.

86% found the notions case very portable
The case is nice for storage, indicating that the knitting-crochet-notions are portable and can be easily stored.
92% praised the high-quality scissors, but 8% found them dull
I researched blocking items and found KnitIQ to be the best among the few options available.
The lines don't match up perfectly no matter how I rotate the blocks, which is a negative aspect of the product.
85% appreciated the convenient stitch markers, though 15% found them easy to lose
I bought two sets of KnitIQ as I make a lot of baby blankets and long sweaters.
I am unsure if I would recommend the stitch markers or not. I suggest going for a less expensive option since I expected a better performance from this more costly item.
86% found it worked well with all yarn types, while 14% had issues with certain fibers
I recommend these lines for knitters even though they are not perfectly aligned.
Pin heads snag lace yarn, which is not compatible.
