4:Medium

Medium yarn, also known as worsted weight or [4] yarn, is a popular choice among crafters due to its versatility. It's thicker than light yarn but not as bulky as chunky yarn, making it the "Goldilocks" of yarn weights.

The term 'worsted' comes from a particular spinning method that produces a smooth and durable yarn. This medium-weight yarn is ideal for creating a wide range of items. From cozy sweaters and scarves to blankets, hats, and even home decor items, medium yarn can handle it all with grace.

With its excellent stitch definition, worsted weight yarn is perfect for showcasing intricate patterns like cables, lacework, and colorwork. It's also a great choice for beginners, as it's easy to work with and the stitches are clearly visible.

When knitting or crocheting with medium yarn, you'll typically use US size 7-9 needles or I-K crochet hooks. However, always check the recommended gauge on your yarn label or pattern to achieve the best results.

Whether you're a beginner starting your first project or an experienced crafter looking for a reliable staple, medium yarn offers a balance of weight, warmth, and texture that's hard to beat.
