Quick question for knitters...

[momma2eliandisaac]

What can be made with one skein of wool? What about if trim is available? These may be silly questions but I just have no idea Thanks!!

depends on the size. Just about anything NB can be made with that. Romper, longies, shorties and hat, sweater, sleep sack, etc.

I can get a pair of longies out of one skein up to a Medium/Large with no trim.

Depends on the base but with one skein nb or small longies or sweater, maybe plus a hat, and shorties up to size medium or so. Plus trim I can get up to about s/m longies or large shorties. This is with worsted weight. DK I could get more out of or bulky would be less.

I definitely can't get medium/large longies or a romper out of 4oz of yarn, what measurements are you using JeDeLenae?

It depends on the size you want, and the type of yarn. You should be able to get about anything for a newborn. For an older baby, you could get shorties or a soaker.

With a base like BBR that has more yardage, you can stretch it further.

IDK, it depends. M/L longies aren't that hard at all. But I don't make longies with wide legs. A NB or small romper, like a Molly Bubble doesn't use much yarn at all, no sleeves and no legs.

I'm working on Med/Large Longies using 1 skein and trim on MMR base right now and I can get 10.5" inseam.

Thanks! I found a MYMN spot I wanted but the knitter has just one skein of what I want....just wanted to see what I could actually get

I feel like it also depends on the knitter. maybe some people do a wider waist band with the trim you know? so that would mean using less of the colorway you know?
