120 m / 100 g

Denser per gram. Synthetic instead of drapey fibre: less breathability and no blocking give.

skein
95 m / 50 g

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

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.
