What is the equivalent to Lyscordet?
Hi everyone
Couldn't find a newsgroup specifically for knitting or crochet but this one looks fun! I'm based in the UK and am thinking about making a top using a pattern that states you need 5 x 50g balls Twilleys Lyscordet. That seems to be an expensive option. Just wondering what Lyscordet is comparable to in the UK.... is it similar to double knit, 4 ply or something finer than that. Also wondering what size 3 fine (sport) weight cotton thread would be similar to, in UK wool. I'm thinking of crocheting some bags for my daughters. Would a 4 ply work instead of sport weight cotton, or would it come out too big? Please can someone help on either of the above two questions. Many Thanks. Yvonne |
