    Wraps per Inch Tool

    Hi everyone,
    I still tend to get confused with yarn re sports weight, worsted weight etc. Recently, someone mentioned to me a tool called "Wraps per Inch" that is used to determine appropriate yarn type. I looked on line and found this tool under Knitting. It looks like it would be helpful. My question is, would this work for crochet? Does anyone know of a similar type tool in crochet? I know this is not the perfect solution, but it may be helpful.

    Hi Janie,

    Never heard of such a tool but it sounds like a good idea.
