Shopping
We only recommend products we love and that we think you will, too.
But one of the most exciting parts about crocheting is selecting and buying yarn.
Luckily, theres astandard yarn weight systemin place to make picking the correct weight easy.
Worsted weight is a size 4 and is one of the most common yarn sizes.
Types Of Yarn Fiber
The fiber your yarn is made of is another huge consideration.
Feel, stretch, look, and laundering all differ based on what fiber youre working with.
Bamboo is more flexible than cotton but is similarly hardy.
Some yarns combine multiple fiber types for a best of both worlds effect.
Finally, consider care for your completed project.
But it varies from yarn to yarn, so be sure to pay attention to your yarns label.
Lastly, color is of personal preference.
Solid, marled, multicolored, and even self-striping yarn are all options.
