I have just downloaded a pattern for a cardigan knitted with Sirdar Eternity Aran but can’t find that wool anywhere? Does anyone know anything about it? I tried a yarn substitution page but no mention of it. Frustrating…lovely pattern!
Hello
Ravelry has it listed as super bulky but looking at the needle size andnstitches per 10 cm I’d say it’s aran weight

You could use the fibre info off ravelry to look for a similar yarn in aran weight to use. The picture shows some texture in it too which you might want to look for.
Thank you.
Hi again. Thank you for your advice. I have looked and have come up with Debbie Bliss Cashmerino Aran… I’m not good at this but it does say 18st to 24 rows over 4 inches. Do you think that is ok? Linda.
Yes, thats an aran weight worked on the same needle size. The gauge is just slightly different but it’s always best to do a gauge swatch before you start your full project anyway.
The texture is different so the look of the finished project won’t be exactly like the picture, but will instead be your own creation.
Thank you so much. Lind.
You’re welcome. Enjoy your project.
