This leaflet contains yarn yardage requirements for eight of the most popular knitted items: sweaters, vests, mittens, gloves, socks, scarves, tams, and hats. Based on the projects in The Knitter's Handy Book of Patterns, the yardages are for sizes ranging from baby or toddler to large adult, and for multiple gauges appropriate for fine to bulky yarns. Keep this guide handy for those times when you just might buy yarn - always! 4" x 9 1/2"
