Grab the center of the hanger and pull it down as shown in the photo. |
|
Look at the picture just above. Bend #1 like you see in the picture to the left. Bend #2 up as shown to the left (its about 3" wide). |
|
Put your sock on your new blocker and "tweak" it until it fits just the way you want. |
