White bulk size yarn is needed for a simple afghan? And about how much yarn do you need?

I used Lion Brand Homespun (weight 5 yarn) for a large blanket measuring roughly 48 inches wide and close to 6 feet long. I think I used 9 skeins of that yarn and it has 185 yards per skien in the solid colors. I have found that the Lion Brand website has the best patterns for afghans and it gives you an idea of how much yarn to use.

Since the charms range in different sizes, but none are real big, 18-22 gauge would be fine. It all depends on what you want to do. Anything over 16 would be too thick. Hope this helps.

It is not very thick. Most wool blankets that I have run across are about the same thickness, with the exception of a German one that I have. I have a US army one, Italian and Swiss one and they are all the same thickness.

We just use a bucket. It doesn't matter at all, the knit cord is all that needs to go into the solution. Dipping the cord straight down & lifting it straight up without getting the loop all tangled is the main idea. Container could be many different shapes or sizes & still accomplish that.

Yes! I bought it for my teenage Grandaughter who,knowing she was getting one,bought heavy weight yarn to knit a scarf.Trial and error proved you have to allow space for yarn thickness by skipping prongs.After that,it worked out just fine. I hope this answered your question&helped you decide if you want to order one or not.I may get one for myself soon.This particular one is well made.

I think you could probably use red emboidery thread for it...and a big, heavy duty needle. Go to a craft store and look at their selection. I'm sure you will find something you like. Good luck! :)

Very, very little stretch, if any at all. This is a "static" (I think that's the term!) cord. It's formed with a core of 7 two ply yarns, mostly white. The core iswrapped in the colored woven sheath. After you cut a piece, you will need to singe the ends to melt them to keep them from unraveling. There are severaltypes of paracord, but this answer refers specifically to the the cord I bought.

I tend to pull from the center of a ball to knit so I often rewind the left overs back into a ball. You don't need a whole lot. The cone is one size but I think the reason it's for up to 10oz or so of yarn is because the bottom on the cone comes out further and the arms that wind the yarn are long enough to fit around the ball that is being wound- if that makes sense. For amounts that are next to nothing I just wind into a small ball with my fingers and throw into the pile with others- these are like next to nothing quarter sizes. Hope that helps

No medium size perfect for clip in weaves . That's what I use them for. &#128515;&#128515;

Hello: Pls Check out the actual Authentic Knitting Board website for more information and selections of many boards ( including another 28" board. http://www.knittingboard.com/Knitting_Boards_s/1.htm The following info is from their site. Each board has 84 pins for 84 double stitches. You can use them all or just a few depending on your project. The maximum knitting width of this board is aprox 30"-45" depending on the yarn and spacersbeing used. (I have 4 of their looms that I enjoy using! happy looming! )

When I used it for a sheepskin rug, there was no mixing required. I just measured the amount, added a little more and washed it.

It really depends on what you mean by small project. if you were doing small ornaments for a christmass tree, you'd get a whole bunch. My daughter was very liberal with her projects, she is only 7, and made about 10 large pieces. 16 girls is quite a large group and it really depends on what size items you are going to have them make, but I think you will need at least 4 for that many girls, 4 per container

I had no problem changing yarns as long as the weight was correct. DK was great. Worsted was more difficult. Didn't try bulky but I doubt the machine could handle it.

I don't remember it asking for a size just the quantity and color! Sorry I couldn't be more help!

I agree and no one ever answered my question. I like the yarn and the colors and it did a great job but I never knew if I would have enough.

I'm sorry I can't give you a d you to know approximately how much thread you get so I used one spool of black which I really don't need,and I put it on about 5 bobbins,a little l I figured its about 5 bobbins full,a little less. worth,for the price,I think its good.
