How To Read Yarn Labels (A Beginners Guide To Ball Bands)

How To Read Yarn Labels

When it comes to selecting yarn for your next project, or even just picking up some yarn to keep in your stash, being able to read yarn labels is a key skill.
There’s a lot of information there, so I’m going to show you what is most important for beginner knitters.
I’m not going to show you everything because as a beginner overcomplicating isn’t what you need. The ideal next step is to start knitting, not become a collector of yarn and yarn labels! (that’ll more likely be you in 3 or 4 years time! LOL)
