Blocking

I took my Just Enough Ruffles scarf off the needles a few nights ago and I have to admit I'm a little frightened to block it.  I thought I could avoid the blocking process.  I wore the scarf to work today (it's very cold in our office so I was able to wear it all day long) but the it didn't drape nicely; it curled onto itself and the stockinette section was basically lost in the curl.  So I've decided to give blocking a try for the first time.  I looked for some references and knitty was there for me with a nice article.  Check it out.  I'm very tired but I'm going to block this tonight and will let you all know how it looks when it dries.
