look at the pattern...... it usually says how much..... i.e.: 5 skeins of yarn As noted above, the pattern generally states how much yarn to use for that pattern. If you are trying to design your own pattern, however, then the process is more complicated. There is no general rule for how much yarn in a pattern, even as to type of pattern, because each is so different. Different scarf patterns, for example, would take different amounts of yarn. Generally speaking, I can probably make a scarf if I have 7 to 10 ounces of yarn. If I am making a hat for a child, I can do it with one 3.5 ounce skein with yarn leftover. For an adult, it depends on the pattern. Sometimes one skein would be enough, sometimes two would be needed. Afghans require more yarn, but amount varies with yarn, hook, and the size of the afghan as well as the pattern. One can take a baby afghan pattern and use chunky yarn to give a larger afghan, but amount of yarn required will be different. If you have a pattern and it gives you the yarn amount in skeins but not ounces, and you want to use a different yarn, then you need to find out how many ounces in that type of yarn, then buy the required ounces in a yarn in the same weight category.
check www.lionbrand.com they have tons of patterns and I believe you can search by yarn type.
You can sew it on with needle and plain thread / matching yarn.
Your answer depends on the gauge that you knit with the yarn and needles that you want to use and the size of the afghan that you want to make.Can you do the math?
Its not possible to work around a crochet space because a space has nothing in it. However it is possible to work around a crochet stitch such as the post of the actual crochet stitch. You can work a crochet slip stitch over the top of crochet chains and stitches to get to another place in your crochet piece. You can also work crochet stitches around the post of a stitch. The term working around the space does not make any sense and is not good language for describing written instructions.
The recommended size of crochet hook for working with yarn that is 5mm thick is typically a 5mm crochet hook.
The recommended size of crochet hook for working with medium weight yarn is usually between 5.5mm to 6.5mm.
The recommended size of crochet hook in the US for working with a 3mm yarn is typically a size C or D hook.
The best techniques for using stretch yarn in crochet projects include using a larger hook size, working with a looser tension, and incorporating stretchy stitches like the single crochet ribbing or the half double crochet ribbing. These techniques will help maintain the stretchiness of the yarn and prevent the finished project from becoming too stiff.
The recommended yarn weight for a size 25 crochet hook is typically super bulky or jumbo weight yarn.
When working with stretchy yarn in crochet projects, it is best to use a smaller hook size than recommended on the yarn label to help control the stretchiness. Additionally, using tighter tension while crocheting can also help prevent the finished project from becoming too loose. Blocking the finished project can further help to shape and control the stretchiness of the yarn.
For this project, you should use a size 6 yarn crochet hook.
Yes.
The following is the American meaning of double crochet. The British system would call this stitch a treble. A British d.c. is an American single crochet. Double crochet is one of the three basic stitches of crochet: chain, single crochet and double crochet. To make a double crochet: 1. Put the working yarn over the hook (this is called a "yarn over"). 2. Insert the hook in the next stitch in the row below. 3. Yarn over again and pull that yarn over back out through the stitch. There are now three loops on the hook. 4. Yarn over again, and pull that yarn over through the first two looks on the hook. Two loops remain on the hook. 5. Yarn over again, and pull that yarn over through the remaining two loops. When you finish a row and turn, start a row of double crochet by first chaining three stitches. This chain-3 counts as the first stitch of the row. For a single crochet, chain only one to start a new row.
To prevent yarn splitting while crocheting, use a crochet hook that matches the yarn weight, avoid using yarns with loose fibers, and crochet with a consistent tension to keep the yarn intact.
To do a double crochet do a yarn over, insert your hook into the next stitch, do a yarn over, pull the yarn through the stitch, yarn over, pull through 2 loops on the hook, yarn over, pull through the last two loops on the hook.
No, they are not. double crochet: Yarn over, insert hook into specified stitch, yarn over, pull through stitch, yarn over, pull through 2 loops on hook, yarn over, pull through remaining 2 loops. half double crochet: Yarn over, insert hook into specified stitch or space, yarn over, pull through stitch (3 loops on hook), yarn over, pull through all 3 loops on hook.
