Understanding Yarn "Weight"

[@LionsLamb79]

I think you did a very admirable job of explaining yarn and all it's idiosyncrasies. With so many people doing so many things with so many different types of fibers thank goodness we have a somewhat agreed upon way of classifying them otherwise we would never get around to actually making something. For a non spinner you explained "worsted" pretty well.

[@lizzuuu3831]

I'm a beginner at crochet and your voice helped me calm down from trying to figure out what type of yarn to get. It's pretty difficult, especially during pandemic times, when you can't actually see and touch the product, but your video helped clear some things up for me. Thank you. 💕

[@CherylBrunetteTV]

Glad I could help. It really can be a confusing subject. Basically, you can start by practicing with anything, even kitchen string, if what you're doing is just learning sts.

[@rennielesmurf]

It's interesting hearing about the UK measuring system. As a UK knitter, I've never really seen ply used as the weight measurement. Mostly we have names the same, or similar to the US versions

[@miameszaros6653]

Thank you Cheryl. Good explanations of a complicated subject. I recently learned about "wpi" and find that a very helpful approximation for choosing yarn from my stash before knitting a swatch. I will be downloading your chart and watching more of your videos.

[@JoysEternal]

Hello blonde Cheryl Brunette! 😉 I don’t knit very well, but now that I’m retired and have worked through the trials of my lifetime, I plan to start afresh and become much better. I want to join your gaggle to learn from experts, however, I don’t think I’ll have anything to contribute except information on what confuses beginners. My main reason for commenting though is to tell you that I LOVE❤️ the cool, calm, and collected manner in which you teach! Peace ☮️🕊, Love 💕& Blessings🙏🏽!

[@CherylBrunetteTV]

Dear EternalJoys . . . your very presence will bless us. Do join us. And, you clever person, you caught the blonde Brunette thing (actually, more white than blonde these days). As a topper, my family lived on Auburn Street in Detroit when I was born. And thank you for your kind comment. I spent many years of teaching teenagers. It helped to be calm because their lives are usually anything but.

[@NumaticVacuum]

As well as repeating some of the things you mentioned, Cheryl, I thought I would add some extra information about UK yarn weight, you may not know of or have thought about. In the UK, yarn weight (diameter) goes back to the days of yore, when they hand spun yarn. The yarn weights were made up of how many plys they had and 1 ply was always the starting point and very fine thread... They made the yarns thicker by adding more ply and at one time 4ply became a standard weight, made up of 4 single plys. Which of course was called 4ply and was classed as “knitting wool”. Then people wanted something thicker, so they doubled the plys of “knitting wool” which of course made 8 ply or more commonly known, double knitting because it was double the thickness of knitting wool - 4ply. Aran came next and was an extra 2ply added to double knitting, which made it thicker and the name came from the Aran Islands in Ireland, the first Aran weight yarns were intended to be waterproof and were ideal for fishermen, both because of the waterproof properties that the fibres of the ply and the heavier weight of the final knitted sweaters kept them warm... Traditionally an Aran or Irish sweater would have fishermans rib, cables and some other intricate stitches, they all told a tale about the fisherman that wore them... The cables for one, symbolising the ropes they used. Of course with yarn spinning being automated these days and not widely hand spun, yarns can be made up of thicker single plys and not as many of them, but still have the same yarn thickness overall, of course, old habits die hard and the description of yarn weight hasn’t changed since the early days and probably never will.

[@CherylBrunetteTV]

Thank you NumaticVacuum!!! For this clear and fascinating history. It was very kind of you to share it with all of us.

[@Cherokeegirl63]

[@brianlewis6774]

Thank you so much for posting this video Cheryl! In Australia, 8 ply is the most common yarn, it's the standard. Most of them call for a 4mm needle (size 6). It's quite hard to find worsted weight (which we call 10 ply) unless you go to a fancy yarn shop. I'm glad you could clear this up for my fellow countrymen. :-)

[@CherylBrunetteTV]

+Brian Balhatchet Thanks Brian. I saw that as I explored yarn sizes from an online retailer in NZ. UK knitters tend to prefer lighter weight yarns that US knitters. Have you joined my newsletter group at cherylbrunette.com yet?

[@ThePhantazmya]

Part of worsted spinning is the short draw technique used to produce the yarn. If you use a combed top with a short draw method you will get what some spinners refer to as a "true" worsted yarn. Using the same combed top with a long draw technique is descibed as "semi-worsted" because it won't have as smooth a finish as a "true" worsted yarn. "semi-woolen° is a carded roving that is spun with a short draw and "true" wollen is carded roving spun with a long draw. Each one has a different amount of fuzziness and elasticity. Its good to keep this in mind if you are shopping for handspun online since you can't feel the yarn up front.

[@CherylBrunetteTV]

+Fern Moore THANK YOU for amplifying this Fern. I knew there were spinners out there willing to contribute more to our information.

[@abbynormal4740]

Knitting with Cheryl Brunette Fern explained this so we'll - thanks! If I understand correctly, the short draw compresses the combed fiber the most and results in the least amount of air in the spun yarn. That creates the smoothest texture and higher luster of worsted spun yarn. BTW, great video with lots of info presented in a friendly, easily understandable manner : )

[@CherylBrunetteTV]

+Lori Lynette Thank you for this sweet comment and for joining up. I realized at some point that I was (we all were) throwing around the terms "weight" and "ply" and newer knitters were baffled by it. So much of mastering a subject comes from learning the vocabulary. I know trying to understand directions for computer/internet things drives me crazy because I don't know the terms.

[@delliesabio2438]

Thank you Cheryl. I’m just starting to get interested in Knitting. I hope to learn more about yarns, and needles in general.

[@andychen7390]

Here's a tip: Use a variety of yarn thicknesses, do not look at the yarn label. Use a variety of hooks to determine the kind of fabric you like. The fabric you like, what does it mean? It's subjective, it's your opinion. My suggestion, make the fabric you would want to wear and base it off that. Don't solely depend on what yarn hook the yarn label suggests. I know a friend who uses a 3.50 mm or 3.75 mm crochet hook for a yarn that suggests a 6.00 mm hook because she crochets so much looser than the "average" crocheter. (Thar's a good video suggestion actually, hook/needle sizes and tension) Experiment so that when you look at a yarn and its thickness, you have a preliminary guess as to which hook to use. There are times when a particular yarn may stray from your guess, like silk yarn or novelty yarns, but that's ok. That's experience for the future when you encounter similar yarns.

[@CherylBrunetteTV]

+Andy Chen Thanks Andy. I thoroughly agree. Make the fabric you like with your needles and then adapt from there. Thanks for watching and commenting. And thanks for the video suggestion.

[@joeyune]

+Andy Chen , While I agree with your statement. I also believe to truly master your craft you must understand all elements of your tools before you can venture off and be free willed in what you do.

+teddyoggin Thank you for this sweet comment "teddy." Now that my audience is so international it seemed important for me to learn about other systems and I realized we play fast and loose with the vocabulary.

[@yliberal6355]

I’m trying to work on my very first knitted dog sweater pattern that only specifies worsted weight yarn, no numbers. I thought worsted always meant a #4., boy was I wrong. Maybe that’s why I can’t get my gauge correct. It specifies size eight for larger, and seven for smaller size needles: 18 stitches and 24 rows, no luck, so I guess I’m going to try a six. After watching your video I now know there are so many differences.

[@CherylBrunetteTV]

There are actually many reasons you can't "match gauge." In fact, it's far more likely that you cannot match it than that you can match it! I have a class in mind to really teach the ins and outs of gauge. We almost never "teach" it. We just expect people to "get it." Not fair!

[@amyahdocq8835]

Love your videos and your voice :) Being French, I have some problems with certain terms like DK... what means DK? Ansd my second problem... here I ask for a tip :)... is, I buy a big part of my yarn in garage sales or second hand stores and, of course, many don't have their tags anymore or it so old that nothing is written on the tag so how do you find the needle/crochet size for an anonymous yarn? Is there a trick? Thank you :)

[@CherylBrunetteTV]

Merci bien Amyah. DK is a light worsted weight in the US and an 8-ply by the British system. There is no trick to finding the needle size except the very good practice of guessing. How thick is it? How thin? Start with a guess. Make a swatch of 30 to 36 sts and 3 or 4 inches. Do you like the fabric? That's the only important thing.

[@brianlewis6774]

Having said that though, it's relatively easy to get the same gauge with 8 ply as with 10ply, they're not so different.

[@CherylBrunetteTV]

+Brian Balhatchet To me they are very close. They are a part of what I think of as "the worsted spectrum" from DK to Aran weight.

[@rubykeiss1540]

So well explained thank you. I'm in Australia. I have Lincraft European Santiago yarn 50g. Of course discontinued!! It says 14sts×18rows and 7mm needles. No idea what ply it is or is it "worsted". I want to make a quick scarf so should I just go for it? Really appreciate your help.💖

[@CherylBrunetteTV]

I looked up the yarn. It's a bulky weight and 7mm needles are large. I'd just go for it for a quick scarf. Cast on about 22 stitches (that should make your scarf roughly 6" wide), and knit until you run out of yarn or patience. :D

First of all, 💗thank you💗 for all the hours you put into this video for us! That’s so incredible thoughtful and greatly appreciated.

It’s confusing with all the other countries tossed in. Well for me it’s confusing. I’ve watched this several times , but it’s just getting jumbled up in my head. 😊

[@CherylBrunetteTV]

Hi Celeste. You're right that it's confusing because a single term in knitting can apply to several different things. Some years ago the Craft Yarn Council did a large project in which they identified a set of standards . . . for yarn sizes, sweater sizes, etc. This is their chart for yarn "weights" (that is, thicknesses of the thread). It might help you because it's laid out well and it's visual: www.craftyarncouncil.com/standards/yarn-weight-system

[@Saundra7]

I have a question. Can a larger ply (more strands) yarn be considered as a tighter woven yarn? Meaning, are more fibers densely spun in several strands, or can a, say 3 ply have just as many fibers per diameter as a light worsted 4 ply? I am wondering if this can change a project entirely by its gauge.

[@CherylBrunetteTV]

Hi Saundra. Not necessarily. The number of plies is independent of how tightly they are spun together. You can, for example, have a single ply bulky weight or one with many plies and they can yield similar, maybe even identical, gauges. The only way to be sure of your gauge in ANY project is to make a healthy-sized gauge swatch of the yarn you want to use and measure it carefully . . .

Single strand yarn is not technically called a single ply. Ply describes one or more stands that are twisted together. Sorry for the knit-picking, but my spinning teacher is very adamant about terminology. Enjoyed your video.

I am still baffled. I want to make a shawl with pockets from a pattern. It calls for "Aran" yarn. With some searching, it says Aran is worsted. But which worsted? I'm so confused!!! 😩Karen

[@CherylBrunetteTV]

Worsted as in the thickness of the yarn . . . so figure, if it's wool, to be about 200 yards per hundred grams.

[@fuzzbone]

Aran means slightly heavier than worsted

[@jmarylastone]

[@CherylBrunetteTV]

+jmarylastone It was my problem with that yarn that was too skinny for the job at the time and a woman from New Zealand that brought this program into focus for me.
