Hi, Erika...........I'm not sure how to answer your question about ply because
I never seem to look at "ply" when I buy yarn.........but the Paton's I have
used is recommended for 4.5 mm needles and is what I call "sweater wool
yarn." It is made in Canada and is labeled #4 medium yarn. It gives a nice
substantial feel when it is doubled. I hope that helps.
We run a challenge each month. This month it is ‘Make it in May' and we would love you to participate, especially knowing that whatever you make will soon benefit one of our children.
Don't forget to post photographs of your work, either in the challenge month, or in your personal blogs as well as in the photos section of the forum. We have an awesome gallery of the work the KAS community is doing in photos, which is really inspiring.
If you have any problems using the forum, please don't hesitate to contact your friendly moderators, listed below. Happy knitting/crocheting! Chat soon.
