How many feet of yarn are in 50 gram ball?

Grams is a measurement of weight and yards is a measurement of length so it is hard to say definitively how many yards in any one package. That said, however, I checked one fingering weight yarn and it said 50g is 1 3/4 ounces. You might like to check several different manufacturers to compare.


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.

Yarn is used inside of a baseball and not thread. It is wound so tightly that it appears to be thread when examined. Three layers of wool yarn and one layer of cotton yarn is used, the total length being approximately 371 yards. Click on the 'Making Baseballs' link below to read about how a baseball is made.


What would ten hanks of wool equal in yards?

The length of yarn in ten hanks of wool can vary depending on the thickness and type of the yarn. Generally, one hank of yarn is about 100 yards, so ten hanks would equal approximately 1,000 yards. However, it's essential to check the specific details provided by the manufacturer, as hanks can differ in length.


Can you knit a scarf or sweater using more than one ball of wool?

Yes. Depending on the size of the sweater and the weight of yarn used, a knitted sweater may use up to 1000 or 2000 yards of yarn. The average ball of worsted weight yarn contains about 200 or less yards, so it is not only possible, but necessary to knit a sweater with more than one ball of yarn.


What is a 120s cotton shirt fabric?

The number 120 refers to the fineness, or yarn count of the original yarn .The higher the number the finer the yarn. Specifically 120 refers to the fact that 120 hanks of 840 yards length (100,800 yards in total) of cotton thread weigh one (imperial) pound.

What does ypp stand for?

If ypp is used to describe yarn, it means Yards Per Pound. When sold in one-pound cones, the ypp number indicates how fine or how thick the yarn is. A cone of yarn with 2250 ypp is much finer than one with only 1050 ypp.


How do you calculate the yarn Tex in count system?

By yarn count, you are probably referring to yarn weight using the fixed weight system (length/lb). The higher the number, the finer the yarn because there are more yards of it in a pound. The yarn count usually refers to a single ply. If it is a plied yarn, there is usually a "/" followed by the number of plies. Example: 20/2 is a yarn of two plies with each ply being 20. When a yarn is plied, you divide the yarn count by the number of plies to determine how many yards of the plied yarn are in a pound. Simple enough, but the length of yarn counted varies depending on the type of yarn and where it was produced. For one type of yarn a unit of length might be 840 yds but for another it might be 200 or 560 yds. To use the fixed count system, you need to know the fiber content and spinning style (woolen or worsted) in order to interpret the meaning of the yarn count. Use the handy converter in the link below to get from what ever yarn count system you have to the TEX system.
