Hi - I just finished my first sweater http://knitty.com/ISSUEwinter04/PATTmariah.html , so now on to the trick of seaming. Somethings I’ve read said it’s really important to block before seaming but I’m not sure how critical it is and don’t want to start before checking with someone with more experience.
Thanks!

I’ve seamed two sweaters without blocking, and one with blocking…the blocked one was a bit easier, but not overwhelmingly so. I think the importance of blocking depends on the fiber content of your yarn, too.
