Yarn Substitutions
Below you can find substitutes for every yarn used in this pattern. Pick a substitute outside the pattern's recommended yarns and Knitr will recalculate the ball count for you. We choose substitutes based on gauge match with the pattern's yarn. For mohairs where gauge is often not stated, we use the yardage to weight ratio. How we select substitutes
