Question about yarn gauge and warmth
Does anyone know: All things being equal (project, size, yarn material, etc.) is a hat made out of fingering (4ply) yarn warmer or colder than a dk or worsted weight yarn?I would think it's colder since air can enter/escape faster. Hm.. ok so the tighter the gauge the more insulating? Generally the heavier the weight of the yarn, the warmer the garment, however there are a lot of variables including guage and fiber Gotcha. That makes sense. I think it's depending on balance between yarn and needle, gotta be tight
