In today's video I talk about some simple things that hopefully will make yarn weights more understandable. Leave a comment below and tell me how YOU figure out what yarns to use for a project or how to substitute yarns. How do you feel about the Craft Yarn Council's yarn numbering system? How would you change it to make it better? Also leave a comment if you have any questions about today's show or if you have ideas for future videos. Or you can just leave a comment to say hi! I always love hearing from you.
**NOTE** Your gauge may also be different after your swatches are washed and blocked. I'll be doing a follow-up video on this, so watch for that.
