How to Calculate Yarn Length from Weight

Поділитися

  • Опубліковано 6 сер 2024
  • Here is an easy formula to calculate yarn length from weight. You can do this with or without a yarn label and I will show you both ways.
    But keep in mind, to improve accuracy with "mystery yarn" it's best to know what type of yarn you are dealing with (ie worsted, dk, bulky). This is particularly important if you are trying to determine if the stash you have on hand will work for a pattern you want to try.

    With the price of yarn this is great. I have never seen it done this way. I stumble and play it by ear. You're great! ☮️🌍🌲

      @@PlayHookywithMe I guess not. I am looking or considering to sell crochet blankets, and would like for someone to demonstrate or show the formula in their video and not just tell how to price your blankets. I haven't came one that I understand. Could you please consider doing a video step by step how to price your crochet projects?

      @@kaycee6036 oh, I see. Yes, this wouldn’t work for that.
      I won’t be doing a video like that because I don’t sell my work but I would recommend you look around to see how much people are charging for their blankets they’ve made on Etsy to get a general idea of what the average prices are.
      It will all depend a lot on how much you’ve paid for your yarn. And then give yourself some pay for the time it took for you to make it.
      For example, if you spend 50 dollars on the yarn you’ll definitely want to charge more than that to make your money back. Maybe something like 75 to 100 dollars depending on how long it took to make.
      Here is an article that might help.
      It’s very in depth but you might find something that helps :

    Great explaination thank you however I find it quite interetsing you chose to use Grams and yards and not G and Cm. For me I never understand why any one thinks Inches are simpler. So being British and of a certain age I was taught both because decimalisation was introduced into the UK when I was at school. CM are just so much easier to divide or multiply because its always a whole unit of ten so the maths is always really very easy, who does not know their ten times tables? A Metre is just over a yard so when buying fabric you get more for a project. I also think MM are easier to get exact measurements that eights or sixteenths of inches but hey just me. Try out measuring in CM and see if you are converted to the dark side 😂
