substitutes (69)

Ranked on stitch gauge, then yarn thickness, then fibre character.

Agnes

PerminDK75% wool, 15% yak, 10% cashmere

workable
gauge
21 sts (same)
needle
5 mm
skein
110 m / 25 g

Springy wool instead of this fibre: more spring and memory — expect a bouncier fabric.

[row gauge unknown — swatch first if the pattern counts rows not cm]

Cashmere Pure

Lana GrossaDK100% cashmere

workable
gauge
21 sts (same)
needle
4.5 mm
skein
115 m / 25 g

Drapey fibre instead of this fibre: more drape and less memory — the garment will hang longer and softer.

[row gauge unknown — swatch first if the pattern counts rows not cm]

SECRET GARDEN

LangYarnsDK84% cotton, 16% nylon

workable
gauge
21 sts (same)
needle
needle not recorded
skein
240 m / 50 g

Inelastic plant fibre instead of this fibre: no stretch and a heavier hang — ribbing will not spring back and the garment will grow.

[row gauge unknown — swatch first if the pattern counts rows not cm]

Lana GrossaDK55% mohair, 45% wool

workable
gauge
21 sts (same)
needle
4.5 mm
skein
250 m / 50 g

Haloed mohair-type instead of this fibre: a halo that fills in the fabric — it will look denser.

workable
gauge
21 sts (same)
needle
4 mm
skein
190 m / 50 g

Denser per gram. Drapey fibre instead of this fibre: more drape and less memory — the garment will hang longer and softer.

Weight group is derived from measured gauge, not the brand's label — that is why a yarn labelled "aran / worsted" can sit in our Aran group while another brand's "worsted" lands in DK. Library: 1406 yarns · 42 brands · 135 without gauge · 276/1408 gauge rows missing row count.
