Knitting and Crocheting Yarn Weight Chart

It may not seem like a big deal but the weight of your yarn matters ALOT!! You don’t always have to use the recommended needle size but keep in mind that most thinner/lighter yarns require thinner/smaller needles + hooks and chunkier yarns require bigger/fatter needles + hooks.

The Standard Yarn Weight System is a guide that shows you all of the yarn weights from lightest  to heaviest. Hope you find this useful!

It lists all of the yarn weights from lightest to heaviest. The Craft Yarn Council is a FANTASTIC resource for all things knit and crochet. Be prepared to learn a TON!

Anyway, here ya go:
