To effectively block acrylic knitting, follow these steps:

1. Fill a spray bottle with water and lightly mist the knitting.
2. Pin the knitting to desired shape and size on a blocking mat or towel.
3. Allow the knitting to dry completely before unpinning.
4. If needed, steam the knitting with an iron on low heat to set the shape.
