What weight is Unger's Roxanne yarn?
It appears that there is no readily available answer to this specific yarn (Unger's Roxanne). The reason is that Unger's went out of business, got bought out by another company, or another reason. One way to figure out what the yarn weight of a ball of yarn would be to knit a stockinette gauge swatch, (or a crochet gauge swatch), then by counting the stitches, for four inches, and dividing by 4, you get an average stitches per inch. From there find your yarn weight at the Yarn Council recommended standards to get a guess at the yarn weight, ---Otherwise, take the yarn to your local yarn shop and see what weight they guesstimate for you <--this is probably your best bet at finding your yarn weight and information, btw
