You can not determine how many yards from the weight of the skein or cone. 50 grams is 1.75 ounces but it would depend on the exact thickness and type of yarn to know how many yards. The thicker the yarn the less the yards as a rule. Example a 50 gram ball of sport yarn can be anywhere from 110 to 170 yards give or take , but a 50 gram ball of bulky can be anywhere from 30 yards to 60 yards give or take ..

Depends on the bulk of yarn, worsted weight is about 300 yards per 50 grams. As the yarn gets thicker you may have less yardage.

I have 620 grams of yarn how many yards is that?

The number of yards of yarn in 620 grams depends entirely on the unique qualities of the yarn. First of all, the weight, or thickness, of the yarn can influence the number of yards in a specific number of grams. For instance, 10 yards of laceweight yarn will weigh much less than 10 yards of bulky weight yarn. Second, the type of fiber of the yarn also needs to be taken into account. Certain fibers, like cotton, bamboo, and silk, tend to be much heavier than fibers like wool or alpaca. Therefore, 10 yards of cotton yarn will weigh more than 10 yards of wool yarn, even if the two yarns are of equal thickness. Therefore, it is difficult to determine the yardage of your yarn without further information. If you know the fiber and the weight (thickness) of the yarn (such as laceweight, fingering weight, sportweight, worsted, etc.), you can find a yarn with a similar weight and fiber on a website such as yarndex.com and compare its yardage with your yarn. However, this method can get you only an estimate, and is not guaranteed to be accurate. If you must know specifically how many yards of yarn you have, you can purchase a device that measures it as you spin it into a ball. A Yarn Meter such as this one from knitpicks.com: http://www.knitpicks.com/accessories/Knitting_Yarn_Meter__D80179.html can measure exactly how many yards of yarn you have.


How many yds in 750g in yarn?

There is approx. 150 yards in 50 grams of WORSTED weight yarn so approx 2250 yards in 750g. That is very approximate as different yarns weigh differently and contain different yard amounts in a skein. If you are asking about fingering, sport or chunky weight, the answer would be different.


How many yards is 2 ounces?

They can't be compared. A yard is a distance, an ounce is a weight. The length of 2 ounces of yarn would depend upon the thickness of the yarn and the type of material the yarn is made of (lambs wool, acrylic, etc). I have had some luck when substituting a yarn with a replacement that was an equivalent grams per meter (ounces per yard).

50 grams how many ounces of yarn?

This might help you for future reference: there is 28.47 grams in 1 oz., so your answer is (approximately 1-3/4 0z.) My info is slightly different but the end result is the same. Approx. 1.75 ounce in 50 grams. If you know the ounces, multiply by 28.35 to get the grams. If you know the grams, multiply by .0353 to get the ounces

How many balls in 1070 grams of yard of yarn worsted WEIGHT?

There are no set rules about how many grams or yards of yarn per skein/ball of yarn. Different companies have different sized skeins/balls of yarn, and even between the different styles of yarns. Best bet would be to find the yarn that you would like to use for your project, and see how many grams in the ball then figure out how many balls you would need. A few numbers to keep in mind, 1070g = approximately 38oz, or about 2.4 pounds.

How many yards in 600 grams of bulky yarn?

650 grams is 22.945 ounces, which is approximately 23 ounces of yarn. Assuming 50 yards per ounce (according to a chart at Annie's Attic), you'd have 1147, or to round it off about 1150, yards in 650 grams. To add to that, I have a skein of Red Heart Super Saver Worsted Weight yarn in hand. It says 7 oz. 198g, 364 yds, 333 m. Using that measurement, 650g would be about 1165 yards. That said, not all worsted weight yarn weighs the same, so 650 grams of one brand may not be equal to another brand. If you are purchasing yarn for a particular project, I suggest buying more than you think you need to be sure you have enough of the same dye lot for your project.


How many grams of wool are needed for 400 yards of wool?

This varies with the thickness of the yarn. A conversion from weight to length should be given on the ball band. For worsted weight yarn 400 yd would be about 227 g.
