  2. Yarn weight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yarn_weight

    Measure the number of wraps per inch (2.5 cm). For better accuracy, measure the wraps at the center of your yarn sample. The number of wraps will act as a gauge to assess the thickness of unmarked yarn; for example 12 wraps per inch is 12 WPI, and is used to calculate how much yarn is required for various articles, [ 3 ] so that 12 is ...

    [5] den (denier): Grams per 9,000 metres of yarn. Den is a direct measure of linear density. [5] dtex (deci-tex): Grams per 10,000 metres of yarn. Dtex is a direct measure of linear density. [5] gr/yard: Grains per yard of yarn. Gr/yard is a direct measure of linear density, but is rarely used in the modern textile industry.

  5. Gauge (knitting) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauge_(knitting)

    Yarn weight is a factor; thicker yarns with less loft overall produce larger stitches than thinner yarns (reducing the number of stitches per width and length). Larger knitting needles also produce larger stitches, giving fewer stitches and rows per inch. Changing needle size is the best way to control one's own gauge for a given pattern and yarn.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yarn_realisation

    In textile spinning, yarn realisation (YR), or yarn recovery, is an operational parameter of yarn manufacturing. It is the percentage conversion of raw material to finished yarn . The rest of the waste fibers with less value are compared to the weight of the produced yarn from a given weight of raw material.
