The Knitter's Handy Guide to Yarn Requirements

This laminated leaflet contains the specific yarn yardage requirements for eight of the most popular knitted items-mittens, gloves, socks, scarves, tams, hats, sweaters and vests. Based on the projects in The Knitter''s Handy Book of Patterns, the yardages given here are for sizes ranging from baby or toddler to large adult, and for multiple gauges appropriate for fine to bulky yarns. Keep this handy in your knitting bag and use it as a reference for all of your basic patterns-no longer will you need to guess how much yarn to purchase for a bulky hat for a child, a pair of fingering weight socks for yourself, or a worsted-weight sweater for a friend.
