There are all these different types of yarn, but what are they and what is the difference between them? For example: Worsted weight, bulky weight, etc. Then there is 4ply and 10ply and many more. Then there is wool, and nylon, and acrylic, and on, and on. What does all this mean? How do you know what is what? What do you look for on the yarn sleeve? If you no longer have the yarn sleeve, how can you tell what time of yarn it? All the different yarns are very overwhelming and my patterns never turn out to be either way to small or way to big. Even when I check my gauge.
