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.

I found it on Amazon.. under wraps per inch yarn.

Here is a link to the 'Wraps per inch' - it is pretty easy to make the tool...Happy Crocheting! Ada.
