Hi,
This is my first time on this forum (actually any forum for crocheting as i've only just recently learnt, but so far i've made a baby blanket and 2 acorn hats.)
I live in australia ( and let me just say that the registration process does not allow australian zipcodes EVEN THOUGH it says to pick a country) but i'm crocheting from an american book called
"Simple crochet for cherished babies" by Jane Davies (or Davis, i can't remember).
Here in australia our wool is labelled by ply, and like my european friends this is what we are concerned with when we choose wool for a pattern. In Jane's book she asks for fingering weight wool, worsted weight wool and DK wool. I've read some of the other posts related to this topic and i've searched and googled a few other yarn company websites to try and find out the equivalent plys to these weights but I KEEP FINDING CONTRADICTING AND CONFUSING INFORMATION!!!!!!
If someone can PLEASE HELP ME i would like to know the american eqivalent to the following plys:
3 ply
4 ply
5 ply
7 ply
8 ply
10 ply
12 ply
Thank you in advance!
