Hallo allemaal,

In engelse patronen kom ik regelmatig bovenstaande term tegen, en ik ben er nog steeds niet achter wat voor soort wol hier precies mee bedoeld wordt. Heeft iemand hier een idee?

 
Martine.

Volgens mij bedoelen ze daar gewoon zuiver wol mee,en dan in verschillende diktes .2 ply  is twee draadjes getwijnd en 4 ply is 4 draadjes getwijnd,voor zover ik het begrijp tenminste,misschien zit ik er helemaal naast.

Worsted Weight (or Knitting Worsted Weight): The most popular weight of yarn used for sweaters, afghans, pillows, and craft projects. Dat is alles wat ik er van kon vinden

Worsted/Aran: 4 - 5

Worsted or Aran yarn has a gauge of 4 - 5 stitches per inch. Worsted weight yarn is perfect for beginners as it is easy to see your stitches. Yarn of this weight has a comfortable hand, which means it is substantial to hold, but not too big.

What's the big difference between sports yarn and worsted weight?

The following information is from the Lion Brand Yarn Guide
A: Worsted weight is a measure of thickness that originally applied only to worsted spun wool. It has come to be used to describe any fiber of that traditional thickness.

WEIGHT: This refers to how thick the yarn is. There are a number of standard thickness' for yarn. These include:
* FINGERING YARN: A loosely spun, very lightweight yarn used for babywear, socks, and other delicate items.
* SPORT YARN: A medium weight yarn used for babywear, sweaters, and lightweight throws.
* WORSTED WEIGHT YARN: The most popular weight for knitting and crocheting. An ideal weight for throws.
* CHUNKY YARN: Heavier than worsted weight, chunky yarn works up quickly and easily for such things as hats, scarves, and throws.
* BULKY YARN: A very heavy yarn, about twice as thick as worsted weight.
YARN EQUIVALENTS: A method of approximating yarn equivalents:
Two strands fingering equal one strand sport.
Two strands sport equal one strand worsted.
Two strands worsted equal one strand bulky.

Voor de liefhebbers: Via ebay stores volop te vinden in Amerika. Heb net vorige week 8 bollen ontvangen voor één van mijn projecten. Heb er reuze veel zin in om ermee te gaan breien
Groetjes,
Ilona.
