Yarn is a long continuous length
of fibers for use in the production of textiles, sewing, crocheting,
knitting, weaving, embroidery and ropemaking. Thread is a type of yarn
intended for sewing by hand or machine.
Craft yarns
In the United States, Canada and Europe, balls of
yarn for handcrafts are sold by weight. Common sizes include 25g, 50g, and
100g skeins. The actual length of the yarn contained in a ball or skein can
vary due to the inherent heaviness of the fiber and the thickness of the
strand;.
Some of the names for the various weights of yarn from finest to
thickest are called lace, fingering, sock, sport, double-knit (or DK),
worsted, aran, bulky, and super-bulky.
Labels on yarn for handcrafts often include information on gauge,
