Step 3-Stencil on the Design: Read the manufacturer’s recommendations for stenciling on fabrics (included in the stencil packet). Note: Do not wash blanket before stenciling. Center the stencil on the crochet, and tape it in place. Avoid unwanted paint smears by placing tape around the edge of the stencil. Use a “dry brush.” Try your color on an extra piece of crocheted swatch or a paper towel before stenciling on your placemat. Hold the tip of the brush per pendicular to the fabric and use a “tapping” motion with the brush. This allows a good control of color depth and shading. Make sure your hands are clean before removing or changing the stencil. If you make a mistake with the stencil, turn the blanket over and stencil the pattern on the backside.
