 ply yarn is the most popular yarn put on cone. At tension 5-7 on the main bed dial with 4 ply yarn it will produce approx 7 stitches and 10 rows to 2.5 cms.
-The yarn supplied in the yarn crate is for learning how to knit, feel free to use it to create small samples and tests. If you want to start a project (scarf, sock, pillow, whatever) please supply your own yarn. By knitting a small 10 needles x 10 rows in your desired ply and tension, measure it's dimensions then unravel it and measure the length of the yarn it used, that'll tell you how much yarn you need for your project. Always buy a little extra for mistakes. If you have leftovers, you could consider donating them to the yarn box ;)
