How much does a skein of Aran yarn weigh?

A full skein of Impeccable worsted weight/size 4/aran yarn weighs 4.5 ounces and there are approximately 277 yards per skein. When I am finished with my project and weigh the remainder of the skein (using my inexpensive but accurate kitchen scale that I purchased specifically for yarn ♥) I discover that there are 2.48 oz left over. Now let’s math!

How to convert yardage of yarn to ounces?

A simple way to do the conversion is to find a yarn of the same weight (i.e. worsted) with the yardage listed, then use a scale to weigh the yarn. To find the yard per ounce, divide the listed yardage of the yarn by the weight of the yarn in ounces. For instance, I have a medium weight yarn that is 103 yards. Upon weighing the yarn, it is 3 oz.

How many yards of worsted weight yarn are there?

The pattern calls for 2,000 yards of worsted weight yarn but the skeins are labeled for ounces. Anyone know a conversion? Would appreciate any help I can get! The units you mention are actually measuring different things. “ounces” actually stands for ounce weight. For yarn this is usually ounces per linear yard. This is the density of the yarn.

How many yards in a 7 oz skein of yarn?

I take this measure, then multiply it by the weight of the yarn whose yardage is unknown, 7 in this case, which results in 240.3 total yards. Using this calculation, I can deduce that my 7 oz skein of yarn whose weight is similar to the 3 oz 103 yard skein, will have a length of 240.3 yards.
