When you knit something using a pattern, each line of the pattern contains a stitch count.
Depending on the weight of the yarn you want to use to make the project, you can use the number
of stitches to calculate how much yarn you need to finish your project.
The table below gives the number of inches per stitch for the basic weights of yarn you will find at a
store:
Weight
Fingering
DK
Worsted
Bulky1
Bulky2
Super Bulky
Inches Per Stitch
1 in.
1.5 in.
1.8 in.
2.5in.
2.75 in.
7.5 in.
Given that you want to use Worsted weight of yarn with 1.8 inches per stitch, and your pattern calls
for 310 stitches, answer the following questions:
1) What is the number of inches of yarn that you will need?
The store you are at only has yarn lengths given in yards, and there are 36 in/yd
2) What is the number of yards of yarn you will need for your project?
