Indicated needle size and knitting tension are only meant as recommendations and may vary according to specific design and/or individual knitting techniques.
Yarn qualities with the same or nearly same knitting tension can be used for the same patterns.
You may also mix the various yarn qualities as follows:
For example: Two strands Alpaca create the same knitting tension and thickness as one strand Alaska. - Two threads from A equals one thread from C
- Three threads from A equals one thread from D
- Four threads from A equals one thread from E
- Two threads from C equals one thread from E
