Yarn Swapping
Part 1: Common Yarn Weights and Gauges

Yarns generally fall into seven categories of weight and gauge. Many patterns and online yarn shops list yarns using these naming conventions, so it's important to know the general category of yarn your pattern calls for.

The following are based on the Craft Yarn Council's Yarn Standards chart. Keep in mind that these categories and their numbers can differ from older conventions, and they still leave a bit of wiggle room in gauge.

Terms Defined

CYCA number	Weight	Gauge
0	Lace/Fingering	33-40 sts = 4" (10cm)
1	Sock/Fingering/Baby	27-32 sts = 4" (10cm)
2	Sport/Baby	23-26 sts = 4" (10cm)
3	DK/Light Worsted	21-24 sts = 4" (10cm)
4	Worsted/Afghan/Aran	16-20 sts = 4" (10cm)
5	Chunky/Craft/Rug	12-15 sts = 4" (10cm)
